Superior Pump 91875 Main Drain Utility Pump, 1/2 HP
Narrow enough to drop straight into the drain.
The Superior Pump 91875 main drain utility pump is built for one awkward job that comes up on every pool renovation and every deep clean out: getting the last of the water out of the bottom of an empty pool. Its narrow stainless steel body fits inside most 8 in main drains, so it can sit down in the sump instead of perched on the floor, and it will start pumping in about 3-1/2 in of water and pull the pool down to roughly 1 in. A continuous duty, thermally protected split capacitor motor drives a stainless impeller for up to 5580 GPH and up to 30 ft of lift.
Why PST Customers Pick This
Fits Most 8 in Main Drains
The slim stainless body drops into the drain sump so the pump sits at the lowest point in the pool, which is where the last of the water always ends up.
Pumps Down To About 1 in
It starts moving water at roughly 3-1/2 in of depth and takes the pool down to around 1 in, so there is very little left to sponge or squeegee out.
Stainless Steel Throughout
Stainless housing and a stainless impeller resist corrosion from chemically treated water and the grit that comes with a drain down.
Continuous Duty Motor
A thermally protected split capacitor motor is rated to run for the hours a full pool drain actually takes, not just for short bursts.
Adapter Included
1-1/4 in NPT top discharge with a 1-1/2 in adapter in the box, so it connects to whatever line you already have on hand.
Screen And Handle
A large intake screen keeps debris out of the impeller, and a heavy duty built in handle makes lowering and lifting the pump manageable.
Electrical Safety
Use a GFCI protected receptacle, as NEC 680 requires for equipment used in and around a pool. Never handle the pump while it is energized, and do not lower or raise it by the power cord.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will it fit my main drain?
It is sized to drop inside most 8 in pool main drains. Measure the opening in your drain sump before ordering, since older and oversized drains vary.
Is it automatic?
No, it runs whenever it is plugged in. Stay with it during a drain down and unplug it once the water is gone so it is not running dry in an empty pool.
Can I drain my whole pool with it?
Yes, that is what it is for. Just be sure the water goes far enough away that it does not saturate the ground around the shell, and never drain a pool without checking hydrostatic pressure and your local rules first.
What does the 1-1/2 in adapter do?
The pump discharges at 1-1/4 in NPT. The included adapter steps that up to 1-1/2 in so you can connect to larger discharge hose without hunting for fittings.
