Wayne1 HP Submersible Cast Iron and Stainless Steel Sump Pump with Integrated Vertical Float Switch - 6,100 Gallons Per Hour - Heavy Duty Basement Sump Pump

The only way to know this is a 120v power is to very ver closely examine the photos.The pump will therefore require a US to UK voltage converter, not something you really want in a wet pump room!Am amazed this is not highlighted in the description on Amazon.

We have 2 of these Wayne pumps1 3/4 hp & another 1 hpWe have had zero issues and they move a ton of water

Ok, great pump, the 1 hp sucks out my whole big sized sump pump pit in 5 seconds, my old 1/3 hp pump was from a big box store, is 10 years old, I have 2 of these pumps, both over 10 years old, working like a champ, but with recent floods in my area increasing, we wanted more power, got it in this Wayne.I will buy another for my second pit in a month if this Wayne holds up well.Heres my problem with this unit, the metal rod holding the float looks flimsy, as other reviewers have stated, also the Wayne manual suggests changing the float switch every 2 years, never had to do this with my other standard sump pumps. Vertical swithch in this unit is great, but I have a feeling I'll be changing the float and the switch within 5 years at most.Instructions on the internet how to do this are available, the float is 35 bucks on amazon, the switch is 20. So not a big deal, I ordered this unit knowing all this from the reviews.Guess I'm spoiled by having 3 regular sump pumps, 1 lasted 7 years, the other 2 are 10 years old and still working, so I believe the Wayne motor may last 10 years, but maintenance on the float and swithch sort of sucks, but any vertical float switch may not last as long as the older floats, idkAt least with the Wayne unit you can replace the float and swithch more easily then your standard pump.This pump is great, but will be a long time in trusting this unit to last, I will update as time goes by.My sump pump pit is large, so a regular float be fine by me, but none are available at this high horsepower with good ratings, so trying the vertical model, and hope for the best, if I do order a second pump, I will order the float assembly and swithch, I figure out of 2 of these units I will be changing one or the other within 5 years or less, so I'll have my 2 older sump pumps ready just in case, and keep the parts on hand instead of waiting to order them when needed, we will seeAll research on the internet has Wayne pumps one of the highest, and most affordable compare to zoeller pumps, 3 times price wise of this Wayne pump for a 1 hp.Time will tell, love the pump, just not really confident in getting 5 years out of it without replacing the float or switch, and the 5 year warranty from reading their manual sounds like it will be tougher to get the unit fixed if needed, but just my gut feeling on this.I'm not using pvc pipes, never have, I use the black hose to be flexible when needed, makes it easy to change out the pump when needed,. I bought the check valve but didn't use it, it's made for pvc pipe, not the black flexible hose I use, no biggie, I like the water flushing back in, helps clean out any debris that may try to clog the unit.Also I'm using a heavy duty 3 pronged extension cord even though the manual suggest not too, the cord is only 7 feet or so long, I've used it on my other sump pumps much cheaper, so Wayne has to suck it up and work with a heavy extension cord, so far so good, next flood I can tell better when unit runs for 30 mins or so non stop.So I say this Wayne unit for the price cant beat it, but must be willing to change float or swithch when needed. Unless you just buy a new one, much cheaper to replace the parts.Just wish Wayne had more confidence in their product so I could be,5 stars until I see any reason to change it, giving Wayne the benefit of the doubt, as far as noise, very quiet pump, I checked the screws on the unit to insure they were tight, all were. Seems heavy but not overly too much, I don't care if the body rusts a bit, sure it will be surface rust only, not affecting the units functioning.I helped myself by capping both of my drains in basement and crawl space, as all went into the yard inside the ground, every flood water came rushing into my house because of this, now water comes in during a flood still but much slower, so 2 sump pumps are for my piece of mind in case we get a major flood like last year, 18 inches of water in my basement, 1200 dollars to repair my furnace, lucky my hot water tank survived, its an 80 gallon beast for my jetted spa bathtub.So investing in Wayne to prevent this damage next major flood, lived in my house 20 years and last years flood was the worst of my 56 years on this planet, scared me straight, so more power now, hate floods but curious if we get another major flood how this pump will keep up running for 3 hours straight as my other ones had to, that will be the true test.Mother Nature can be nasty, but hopefully Wayne's helps even the odds next battle, I'll update again when I got more to add, I will order another for my second pit soon, starting to gain confidence in the pump, ty gl

alot better than our old pump, more stronger, less noisy, looks durable, only time will tell how good this product really is. A+++ so far

Got this pump because our basement is below the water table, constant flowing water in to it.Our original sump broke, and there was about 3 ft of water within a few hours. I was away for work, so I had to get my gf to install whatever we bought. She was able to get it (cdu1000) all installed and running within 15 minutes of unboxing. It cleared the water out in like 5 minutes.This pump is legit. I would say it kicks on about every 10 minutes, for about 60-80 seconds, due to the insane amount of water we have. Its ran flawless. Also it's super quiet. The old sump would wake us up at night. I'm really glad I bought this, and that it was easy to install. Anyone that says it isnt durable is crazy. It's a total workhorse. Well worth the $ and piece of mind knowing it wont crap out on you. Also its built in the USA. Bunch of cast iron and long lasting parts. Thing feels like a dang cannonball. #murica

After looking at this sump pump work during rainy day, I was impressed. I have 8 feet vertical lift to shoot out from the dump pit.! My last 1/3 hp took 8~9 seconds to clear the pit while this Wayne 1hp sump pump finished the same job in 3 seconds with less noise. All made and sourced from USA, especially Michigan! I hope this sump pump last me just like my last one for 10+ years!I am very appreciative!
