RectorSeal Mighty Pump 97795 Hand Operated A/C Condensate Pump, Easy Application, Lightweight & Heavy Duty PVC, Clears Slime, Mold, and Dirt, Easy Application, HVAC

My AC drain lines keep clogging, even after treating them with tabs regularly. So this last time I got so frustrated I was searching for a way to handle the clog myself instead of having to call the HVAC company to come clear the line. My shop vac wasn't cutting it. I decided to try this pump after reading the reviews that said it worked when other things didn't. And what do you know, it does work! Where my shop vac and tabs failed, this manual pump sucked the drain line clear and now I've got the right tool to handle it again the next time it happens, because it will happen again. It has plenty of power even though it may at times feel like its stuck and not working, and yes it is dependent on your strength so if you don't have the horsepower to really pull and push on the pump, then it may not be a good fit for you. Otherwise it's fairly easy to use. I do wish it was a little more flexible with connection options, fortunately for me the blue end of the hose fit inside the outside larger elbow enough that the suction worked, otherwise this would not have fit my pipes and I'd have had to rig up something manually. Aside from that, I'm happy with it, hope it holds up over time but it saved the day during this latest drain clog.

Works very well. I've had this pump for two years. I bought it to clean out my a/c condensate drain. It makes a lot of pressure and cleared my drain very well. It is compact and easy to move around. Beyond using it to clean the condensate drain, I have used it to pump water from the interior floor of my dishwasher, a/c drain pan, and various sinks. Would buy again. I've noticed that the attachments connecting the hoses to the body can come loose as the hoses swivel around, causing drips. Just screw them on tight.

This saved me in so many ways. Every year I had to call for ac service because of a float switch issue. Finally someone told me about this item. I had my teen son use it and it was so gross but within minutes my ac kicked back on and I've had no issues since. Highly recommend

We've been fighting with our AC drain line for a couple years, where we had to keep hooking a vacuum to clear it out. This year the clog was much worse where it was only allowing a slow trickle of water to drain. We were to the point where we thought about getting a plumber to look at the issue. I did one last search for a way to undo the clog and found this product, which had great reviews. After receiving the Mighty Pump, I immediately tried it and was amazed at how quickly it cleared the clog and got a massive amount if gunk from the drain line. Needless to say, years of stress in dealing with the drain line clogs was relieved in a few minutes with the Mighty Pump. I can't recommend this product more....wish I could give it more than 5 stars.

Was working great, lots of suction power. Unfortunately, today, one of the 90° elbows that comes off the pump and goes to the hose cracked in half. I’ve reached out to the company to see if I get a replacement and waiting for an answer. Hopefully, it’s a thumbs up. If anyone else has had this problem and replace that elbow, would you please share the link with me? I would greatly appreciate it just to have a couple on hand just in case it happens again. FYI, the pump was never dropped or mishandled, always carried in a tool bag and use properly.

For the last few years, I had issues with my A/C condensate drain line backing up & triggering the shutoff on my central AC unit. I had multiple HVAC companies come out and drain the lines, use nitrogen, etc. About every 3-6 months (depending on the season/how much the A/C had been running), I'd need to call them back out to drain again. They talked me through options like an inline (electric) pump and regular maintenance. I've also done my own maintenance with a shop vac, but that provided very temporary relief. I finally had enough and dug deeper and found this product. I hooked it up outside and pumped, and got a ton of nasty-looking stuff out of the drain line. I refilled the drain line immediately and haven't had any issues since (3 weeks in). Prior to this, my outdoor drain line would never go faster than a slow drip, but now, I can pour a gallon of water into my drain line (from the inside) and see it come out just as quickly on the outside. This has seemingly solved my annoying & expensive A/C issues! I cannot recommend this product enough. For $80, it cannot be beat. It fit perfectly over my outdoor drain line, and with only about 90 seconds of manual pumping, I was good to go. This worked way faster (and better!) than my shop vac, and is way cheaper than having my HVAC company out every few months for drainage.

I wish I could give this product 100 stars. I tried liquids and the biggest shop-vac there is and my A/C drain still remained clogged. The amount of vacuum this pump generates is insane. It only took 2-4 pumps to completely unclog the drain. And the amount of solid caked material that came out was crazy. Highly recommend this product because it’s simple and you don’t have to be running electrical extensions for a shop-vac, you just plug it and pump it, then clean it by flushing it with clean fresh water. Also I was impressed by the quality of the materials used and the solid build, it feels like a professional tool and feels and look way more expensive than what it was. If it ever breaks I would definitely buy it again. Every homeowner NEEDS to have this tool.

I bought the pump about a year ago after anA/C tech used it to clear my line. I finally had to use it today because a line float shut down my A/C. It took a couple of minutes of pumping, and my line was clear, and the unit is working again. Saved me another service call.

Very effective for clearing the drainage of my home’s inverter split air conditioner system. Useful alternative to a wet/dry vacuum cleaner especially If you already have a stick vacuum and vacuum mop. A big plus is how compact and easy to store it is. Great buy indeed!

Works perfectly with good suction

Very handy

This pump definitely works as designed. It generates strong pressure spikes to dislodge clogs and stagnent water in your drain pipe. It moves a LARGE VOLUME of water, and can work in both directions (ie you can pump air into the drain, helpful to further dislodge clogs). Compared against a wetvac, it requires more manual work, is not that much cheaper, it probably just as effective. Get a wetvac if you have space at home, get this if you're short on storage. Would have given it a 5-stars, but it came with a small crack on one of the hoses so -1 star.
