Water Blaster Pumps

[E.intheC]

Who runs one of these? I'm thinking about getting the 2000 model for my return pump (basement sump project).

I like the Bubble Blaster pumps and have heard good things about the Water Blasters.

I have had mine for over a year and I have yet to find a complaint with it. They are dead silent, low wattage, and move some serious water. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Cool. Relatively low heat as well? (That's what I've heard)

Sounds good. Looks like I'm going to have to get the HY10000 W version.. and use a good deal of flex tubing for the return.

My problem is I only have about 10ft vertical head to deal with, but due to the design of my plumbing system I'm going to need a bunch of elbows, so that adds about 6 feet of head pressure.

Also, does this sound legit?
