Common Concerns Answered
The wire leads seem short for my installation, can I extend them?

I want an automatic bilge pump, does this unit require a separate switch?
Yes, this is a non-automatic model, meaning it requires a separate float switch or helm-mounted control for automatic operation. This allows for precise control over when water is evacuated, offering flexibility in system design.
Are there any common issues reported with this pump?
Customer sentiment is overwhelmingly positive regarding reliability and durability. The primary points raised are the lead length for specific installations and the necessity of adding a float switch for automatic functionality, which are addressed by the product's design for specific user needs.
