Title: Submersible pumps
Post by: Londoner on November 09, 2008, 07:37:43 am
Whats the best value submersible pump to buy? I had a look in a garden centre that does ponds and things but were too dear there. Not suprised really.

Any tips would be welcome

ive got one and i know a few others have, fantastic little thing, make sure you get some big hose to go onto it and it chucks the water out

Are you talking 12volt or mains?  For 12 volt look for bilge pumps as elite mike says, they start at about £7 :o

Mains voltage: I have 2 big meaty Draper pumps, one to transfer the pure water to vehicle tanks, the other removes the waste from my RO (no drainage in the shed)  Both been running for three years, no trouble at all.
