EASY MAINTENANCE: access to pump float and air lock for cleaning; requires no tools or screws; see video for demonstration

I’ve been using the Little Giant APCP-1700 Automatic Submersible Pool Pump for a few weeks now, and I must say, it has made maintaining my pool a breeze!

The pump activates automatically when there are 2 inches of water on the cover, and shuts off when the water drops to 1 inch. This feature ensures that the water level in my pool stays just right without any manual intervention.

One aspect I really appreciate is the ease of maintenance. The pump float and air lock can be easily accessed for cleaning, requiring no tools or screws. A video demonstration is provided for those who might need a visual guide, which I found very helpful.

The design of this pump is well thought out. It has an ergonomically built-in handle for portability and ease of placement and removal. The compact, weighted design provides stability, allowing it to stay in place even during heavy usage.

Setting up the pump was straightforward. A 1-inch FNPT discharge with a 3/4-inch garden hose adapter is included, fitting standard 3/4 garden hoses. The convenient 25-foot power cord ensures easy reach of a power source in most installations.

In terms of specifications, the pump operates on 115 Volts, with a power consumption of 2.2 Amps and 270 Watts. It delivers a flow rate of 1.3 HP and 1745 GPH at a 1-foot lift, with a shutoff height of 25 feet. The integrated float switch ensures the pump turns off when the water level drops to 1 inch.

In summary, the Little Giant APCP-1700 has proven to be a reliable and convenient tool for pool maintenance. Its easy maintenance, well-designed features, and straightforward setup make it a great choice for any pool owner looking for a hassle-free solution.
