Wayne PC4 Pump - a fantastic pump
Wayne 1/2 HP 115-Volt Transfer Water Pump, Cast Iron #PC4
This is a fantastic pump. For a half horsepower pump, it sure has a fantastic volume and speed capability. It's equipped with convenient brass fittings to make most hookups easier. A terrific value, especially considering the reasonable price. Wayne also has a fine selection of accessories for use with this pump. A real good buy!

Powerfull pump
I use this pump to empty an above gound pool. I purchased a sturdy 15' hose for the intake and have had no problems. Like another reviewer noted, I had to buy an adapter for a few bucks to connect the filter onto the input hose end. I connect the output to my sprinkler system and get as much or more power then from the normal water supply. (after 30 minutes the sprinklers stopped, turned out their filters were plugged. Since then I've tied a screen around the intake filter to catch the small derbis and all it well). The only complain I have is that rust comes out of the output side for a few seconds each time I use it. The cast iron must be rusting internally. This may mean nothing or may cause a problem in the long term. For what it's worth, I now empty the pump when I'm finished and spray WD40 thru the input/output holes. Overall, I'm very staisfied with this product.

Wayne 1/2hp Water Transfer Pump Cast Iron
Very well made. Very powerful. Two garden hose connectors in box. Used pump to purge air from hot water heat zone. It easily forced water through and eliminated air from a 100' long zone that supplied a home's second storey. I used rigid 3/4" PVC for intake as pump's suction caused intake garden hose to collapse restricting pump's water flow. No state tax, Free shipping, and $30 less expensive than local rural stores. Arrived in four days.
