Central heating boiler failed, water in the tank and fuel line. To get someone out to pump it out, probably £300. The outlet on the pump is just the right size for ordinary garden hose. Attached to 15mm copper pipe so I could get the pump at the bottom of the tank. Powered it from the 12V battery on my golf cart. Cable length to the switch just right. 12L/minute is not fast but fast enough. Probably pumped out over 100L.
Is it reliable - don't care at less than £12, it did the job.
