Submersible Sump Pump 1/2 HP 120V AC
The Dayton 4HU69 is a submersible sump pump built for residential drainage. It operates on 120V AC power at 60 Hz and draws 6.8 amps. The cast iron body and impeller provide durability in wet environments. This unit is intended for homeowners needing automatic water removal from basements or crawl spaces.
Flow Rates at Measured Head Levels
At 5 ft of head the pump delivers 65 gpm, at 10 ft it provides 57 gpm, at 15 ft it moves 45 gpm, and at 20 ft it supplies 30 gpm. Maximum head is rated at 30 ft where flow stops completely. The carbon ceramic shaft seal resists wear during continuous operation. Performance declines steadily as discharge height increases beyond 20 ft.
Upgrade From Smaller Pumps or Manual Removal
This model replaces lower-capacity pumps or manual bailing in pits of at least 12 in diameter. The 1-1/2 in discharge handles typical residential plumbing connections. Buyers needing higher flow at greater lift or a built-in float switch should consider other options. No switch is included so separate level control is required.

Questions about this item
Will this 1/2 HP pump fit inside my existing 12-inch diameter sump pit?
Yes, the minimum sump pit diameter is 12 in and the pump body diameter is 8 1/2 in, so it fits with clearance.
How can I verify the pump is delivering its rated 65 gpm at 5 ft of head after installation?
Measure the flow at the discharge; at 5 ft of head the pump should move 65 gpm, dropping to 57 gpm at 10 ft and 45 gpm at 15 ft.
Does the box include a float switch or do I need to buy one separately?
No switch is included — neither actuation nor electrical connection — so a separate switch must be purchased.
