4 Sale: 1/2 HP Wayne Porta Pump


Ok guys, heres the deal. Many of you know it flooded around New Jersey, and I was one of the unlucky ones to take on some water. Since we have no sump pump, I had to go buy a utility pump to get the water out. I bought the pump Monday, April 16th, used it monday night, and have no use for it any more. I thought if any of you do power washing, or have any other liquid moving needs, you might find it useful. I pumped 6,485 gallons of water, and it worked like a charm.

It is in brand new condition, and has been used carefully, and only once. I will provide the receipt of sale with the unit. It's a handy (I'm guessing... didn't measure) 5" x 8" x 10" size. Because it is a cast iron impeller housing, it's surprisingly heavy for it's size, so it should be rock solid. To prime the pump, pop the plug off, and put in about 30 oz of water or other fluid. After priming, just connect a hose to each end, and plug it in!
