Pros and cons

According to our water pump expert

  • You can drain up to 17.000L/h, so you can quickly drain a medium-sized room.
  • Thanks to the maximum 9m submersion depth, you can also use the pump for deep pools.
  • The pump automatically switches on and off thanks to the level sensor.
  • You can only drain clean water, so you can't use it in ponds.

Description

The powerful Kärcher SP 17.000 Flat Level Sensor is a powerful submersible pump. You can easily drain water from pools, exhaust shafts, and flooded rooms in your house. For example, water damage in your basement or washing machine leaks. Thanks to the 17.000L/h extraction rate, large puddles of water aren't a problem. If you use the manual setting, the pump drains water down to the minimum 1mm water level. The submersible pump also starts automatically when it touches water thanks to the level sensor. That way, it prevents water damage when you're not home. The SP 17.000 Flat Level Sensor has a Quick Connect connector, so you can easily switch connectors.

Expected more

  • Needs a lot of water to pump out

This pump is used to automatically pump out a wet basement floor. Setting the pump correctly is important because the pump needs a minimum volume to be able to pump out, otherwise the water will continue to circulate in the pump.

Extraction at a few mm of water

  • Extraction from just a few mm of water
  • Long electrical cord making the socket easily accessible

Bought because this pump also provides extraction with a few mm of water and that is indeed the case
