Troubleshooting
Water Happens
Unexpected water can really put a damper on your day, but the HydraPump ® Smart Flex can
help bail you out when jobs require quick, powerful, and automated pumping:
• For pool covers that periodically flood, HydraPump® Smart Flex can be on standby
for incoming water and adjusted to many heights to suit your needs.
• When pools or other water sources overflow, HydraPump® Smart Flex can be put in
an always on mode to continuously pump to bring down the water level.
• If local natural water sources like rivers and lakes swell, HydraPump® Smart Flex can
help keep yards and patios drier.
HydraPump® Smart Flex can help move water in these and countless other situations!
The HydraPump
®
Smart Flex
The HydraPump® Smart Flex with HydraSense™ technology is designed to efficiently transfer
water from one point to another. Simply attach to the HydraPump® Smart Flex a standard
garden hose for an out of the box ready-to-go experience. With HydraSense™ technology, a
height adjustable electrical sensor attached to the pump, water is detected and the pump is
automatically activated.
Note:
• This pump is meant to be used with clear water.
• The pump is meant to operate independently when sufficient water is detected or
continuously when attended. The sensor can have its position adjusted to a desired
height.
• The pump is submersible and can operate underwater.
• This pump is often used to move large amounts of water from one basin or location
to another.
• Always be cautious when using pumps around water!
