Okay, another thing Milwaukee has sent me here that I'm actually super excited about. Is they sent me in their m18 series? It is a transfer pump and now you might be like wow transfer pump. I possibly need that, like that's, not an HVAC related tool. What I will tell you that this is worth keeping on your truck, just straight away, is evolving on that call.
We are up in the attic drain pans totally full you've got 10 gallons of water to flow out of the auxilary drain. Pan take this foot hose on each end. Put it right into the normal drain line pumps it right out, don't have to carry those buckets up and down from the attic really anytime. You need to take just a standing body of water and move it somewhere else.
Without you having to you, know, hope it or carry heavy buckets. This is going to be great for you and will kind of show you how to do that. Like I say this is the one that I'm excited about from the standpoint of empty and condensate lines. In the Attic, not a great video to shoot in the Attic, so what we've got here is I filled this canister up with three gallons of water.
I'm going to go ahead and start it see how much it empties and see how quickly that clears it out to see. If that's a you know a good option, how much time that's really going to save you all right so by my account that took just under two and a half minutes for three gallon. So assuming you have like a really big drain pans, like nine gallons you've got about seven and a half minutes. I don't think in that time you're going to climb back down out of the attic and even find your vacuum, let alone if it's a corded one, how to fill it up, how to do whatever.
So I was actually happy with that work that self-priming worked pretty good yeah. No, I mean I was pleased by that.
Pans around here are filled with blow in insulation, rust, etc. How does the pump handle this stuff?
Can this be used to feed a pressure washer from a portable water tank
Usually if the safety pan is full the condensate drain is blocked though.
Curious if pull drain lines….
Use mine all of the time. Works great Service area Barrhaven??
