    Description

    Waterhouse 400W Automatic Drainage Pump | 7000L/H Pool Cover and Flood Water Pump

    Model: WD-PC 400A

    Make Water Removal Quick, Easy & Automatic

    Dealing with water collecting on your pool cover, a flooded basement or unwanted rainwater around your property? The Waterhouse WD-PC 400A Automatic Drainage Pump is designed to make removing excess water simple and convenient.

    With a 400W motor and a maximum flow rate of 7,000 litres per hour, this compact submersible drainage pump is ideal for moving larger volumes of clean water without the hassle of manually removing it.

    Its automatic on/off operation means the pump responds to water levels, helping you manage drainage with less manual intervention.

    Whether you're draining a pool cover after heavy rainfall, removing water from a flooded area or transferring clean water between tanks, the Waterhouse 400W Automatic Drainage Pump is a practical solution to have on hand.

    Why You'll Love It

    • Powerful 400W Motor: Designed for efficient removal of larger volumes of water.

    • Maximum Flow Rate of 7,000 L/h: Moves up to 7,000 litres of clean water per hour under ideal operating conditions.

    • Automatic On/Off Operation: Automatically starts and stops according to the pump's water-level control.

    • Maximum Head of 7 Metres: Suitable for applications requiring water to be lifted to a higher discharge point.

    • Ideal for Pool Covers: Convenient for removing accumulated rainwater from compatible pool covers.

    • Great for Household Drainage: Helps remove unwanted water from flooded basements and other suitable areas.

    • Submersible Design: Operates while submerged in clean water.

    • 10-Metre Power Cable: Provides flexibility when positioning the pump.

    • Multiple Connection Sizes: Compatible with suitable 20mm, 25mm and 32mm hose connections.

    • Easy to Use: Designed for straightforward setup and automatic operation.

    • Durable Construction: Built for regular clean-water drainage applications.

    Automatic Water Removal Made Easy

    One of the biggest advantages of the WD-PC 400A Automatic Drainage Pump is that it can manage water removal automatically.

    Instead of constantly checking water levels and manually switching the pump on and off, the automatic control activates and stops the pump according to its operating settings.

    This makes it particularly useful for applications where water may accumulate after rainfall.

    Simply position the pump correctly, connect a suitable discharge hose and follow the manufacturer's installation instructions.

    Perfect for Pool Cover Drainage

    Heavy rain can quickly leave a large amount of water sitting on your swimming pool cover.

    The Waterhouse 400W Pool Cover Pump helps remove this accumulated rainwater, making pool cover maintenance easier.

    Its automatic operation is especially convenient when you need to drain water without constantly monitoring the pump.

    Always ensure the pump is positioned securely and used according to the pool cover manufacturer's recommendations.

    Reliable Household Flood Water Removal

    Unexpected water accumulation can be frustrating, especially during periods of heavy rainfall.

    With a maximum flow rate of 7,000 L/h, the WD-PC 400A is designed to move clean water efficiently from suitable flooded areas.

    It's a useful addition to your household drainage equipment for situations such as:

    • Water collecting in basements

    • Rainwater accumulating in low-lying areas

    • Water collecting on pool covers

    • Clean-water tank drainage

    • General household water transfer

    Please note: This pump is designed for clean water only and is not suitable for sewage, muddy water or liquids containing large amounts of debris.

    Ideal Applications

    The Waterhouse WD-PC 400A is suitable for:

    • Pool Cover Drainage: Remove rainwater from compatible swimming pool covers.

    • Flooded Basements: Pump away accumulated clean water.

    • Rainwater Removal: Drain suitable areas after heavy rainfall.

    • Water Storage Tanks: Transfer or empty clean water from compatible tanks.

    • Household Drainage: Manage unwanted water accumulation around the home.

    • Clean Water Transfer: Move water between suitable containers or drainage points.

    Which Waterhouse Drainage Pump Should You Choose?

    Both the Waterhouse WDA250 and WD-PC 400A are designed for automatic clean-water drainage, but they offer different benefits depending on your needs.

    Feature WDA250 Automatic Drainage Pump WD-PC 400A Automatic Drainage Pump
    Motor Power 250W 400W
    Maximum Flow Rate 6,000 L/h 7,000 L/h

    Non-Return Valve Included Not Included
    Cable Length 10m 10m
    Water Type Clean Water Only Clean Water Only
    Warranty 1 Year 1 Year

    Choose the WDA250 if your priority is removing water down to a very low level, such as shallow puddles or areas where you want minimal water remaining.

    Choose the WD-PC 400A if you need a higher maximum flow rate and greater maximum lifting height for moving larger volumes of clean water.

    Important Information

    • Clean Water Only: Do not use this pump for sewage, muddy water or water containing large debris.

    • Maximum Flow Rate: The stated 7,000 L/h is the maximum under ideal conditions. Actual flow decreases as pumping height and pipe resistance increase.

    • Maximum Head: The 7m maximum head is the pump's maximum lifting capability, not the height at which maximum flow is delivered.

    • Automatic Operation: The pump uses automatic water-level control. It does not offer the manual or adjustable water-level functions listed for the WDA250.

    • Residual Water: The WD-PC 400A drains down to approximately 10–12mm, rather than removing every last millimetre of water.

    • Continuous Operation: Ensure the pump remains adequately submerged and operates within the manufacturer's recommended conditions.

    • Electrical Safety: Use a suitable, protected electrical supply and follow the manufacturer's instructions when operating near water.

    Whether you're dealing with a rain-filled pool cover, unwanted water around your home or regular clean-water drainage, the Waterhouse WD-PC 400A Automatic Drainage Pump provides powerful, convenient water removal with the added benefit of automatic operation.
