Swimline Non-Electric Siphon Cover Pump | 5436

Remove unwanted water from your pool cover without the need for extension cords, batteries, or expensive electricity. The Swimline 5436 Siphon Cover Pump utilizes the natural force of gravity to drain standing water. It is the ideal solution for pool owners looking for a low-maintenance, "set it and forget it" tool to prevent water accumulation that can stress and damage solid winter covers.

This siphon pump is uniquely designed to be self-priming; with a few quick squeezes of the included starter bulb, the vacuum is created, and the water begins to flow automatically. Because it has no moving motorized parts, it operates in complete silence and is not subject to the mechanical failures common in electric submersible pumps.

Features

Zero Electricity Required: Since this pump operates purely on siphon logic, it is incredibly eco-friendly and safe to use in wet environments. You’ll never have to worry about finding an outdoor outlet or the safety risks of running power cords across a wet pool deck.

Self-Priming Siphon Action: The kit includes a high-quality hand-priming bulb. Simply place the pump unit at the lowest point of the water on your cover, squeeze the bulb until the flow starts, and gravity handles the rest until the water is cleared.

Automatic Stop Feature: The pump is designed to stop automatically once the water level has been fully drained from the cover. This prevents the "dry run" damage that can plague electric pumps if they are left unattended.

Integrated Debris Filter: The intake base of the pump features a built-in strainer that prevents leaves, twigs, and large silt from entering the hose. This ensures a consistent flow and prevents clogs that could break the siphon vacuum.

Complete Drainage Kit: The unit comes ready to use out of the box, including the intake head, the priming bulb, and a generous length of discharge hose to direct water away from the pool and your home's foundation.
