This pump is made/designed for continuous use, it is not a problem. We've
been running this pump for three years all Summer long. It is off from
Oct.-May, on end of May-Sept.
Looks like we will spend this weekend rigging up something. All the
suggestions here has my brain whirling thru' some ideas we could try.
THANKS!

We use a 5 gallon bucket that Jim has drilled a million 1/2 inch holes
through. It keeps the pull weak and keeps stuff bigger than 1/2 inch
out of the pump. Jim has the bucket on bricks so the bottom of it is
about 3 inches oiff the bottom.

I think sewage pumps are not made for continuous duty. How is yours
handling the steady use? Perhaps others will correct my impression.
