## Overview

The Little Giant APCP-1700 is a compact, submersible pump designed to automatically remove water from pool covers, boat covers, and rooftops. Featuring a 1/3 HP energy-efficient motor, it pumps up to 1700 gallons per hour and activates at just 2 inches of water. Its weighted base ensures stability, while the 25-foot power cord and included hose adapters provide flexible installation. Tool-free maintenance and ergonomic portability make it a reliable, long-lasting solution to protect your outdoor investments from water damage.

## Description

Water remaining on pool covers for an extended period adds extra weight and can cause ripping or tearing resulting in costly repairs or replacement. The Little Giant APCP-1700 115-volt, 1/3 hp, 1745 gph pump removes water from pool covers, boat covers or rooftops - providing added protection from prolonged accumulation of precipitation. The APCP-1700 easily attaches to a standard 3/4" garden hose for effortless water removal. This pump is equipped with a 1/3 hp energy-efficient, permanent-split capacitor (PSC) motor and 25' cord. The -APCP-1700 activates in approximately 2" of water and shut-off when the water level falls to approximately 1". The APCP-1700 has a wide, weighted base design for added stability. The APCP-1700 is equipped with a 1" FNPT discharge and can be connected to 1" piping for areas that frequently get heavy rain falls (1" to 2" per hour) for increased performance.Protect your investment! Take the pump indoors when temperatures fall below 32 °F as the hose can freeze with water in it preventing water from being expelled from the pump. This can cause the pump to run until the water in the hose melts which can result in excess strain and damage to the motor. Freezing water expands and can cause the pump to crack during freezing weather. Clean the pump yearly to keep your pump running smoothly. Instructions are found in the owner's manual or watch our "Troubleshooting Airlock on the APCP-1700 video."Dimensions (LxWxH) are: 12" x 12" x 8.25" and the weight is approximately 13 lbs.
