6699 Portable Submersible Utility Pump – 1/6 HP, 1100 GPH, 10 ft Cord, Compact Dewatering Pump

Overview: compact power for water removal

The 6699 portable submersible utility pump combines a compact footprint with a capable 1/6 HP motor, delivering energy‑efficient performance and built‑in thermal overload protection for safer, longer use. In horizontal pumping, it can move up to 1100 gallons per hour, providing a practical option for fast water removal without taking up lots of space. It operates quietly, so you can use it in occupied areas or during the day without disruption.

Designed primarily for clean water tasks, this pump reduces water levels down to about 1/12 inch, making it suitable for quick dewatering of basements after minor flooding, draining pools, or flushing water from tanks or tankless heaters. A screened inlet protects the internals from large solids, helping to minimize clogs and maintenance needs while keeping the flow steady and predictable.

What makes it easy to use

• Plug‑in operation requires no special tools or setup, letting you start pumping with minimal effort.
• Two included adapters connect to garden hoses (GHT 3/4 inch) or PVC lay‑flat hoses (1 inch) for flexible draining options.
• Durable, hi‑impact plastic housing provides corrosion resistance and reliable performance in damp environments.

Compact and portable by design

• Small footprint—about 5.9 inches in diameter and 8.3 inches tall—so it fits neatly in tight storage spaces.
• Lightweight construction and a compact shape make it easy to transport between rooms or job sites.
• Conserves space in a storeroom or utility closet while remaining ready for the next drainage task.

Versatile, safe use in home settings

This pump is well suited for sump service and general dewatering in light‑water scenarios around the house. Its durable design, combined with practical features, supports dependable operation in damp spaces. Important note: it is intended for clean water and should not be used with dirty water or with expandable hoses.

Practical usage ideas

Imagine quickly draining a flooded basement corner after a heavy rain, or removing standing water from a pool deck following a rainstorm. You can also use it to flush a cold‑water line after maintenance or to empty a small tank before a repair. The combination of power, portability, and simple setup makes it a handy tool for household water management tasks.

Care, safety, and maintenance tips

• Use with clean water only, as indicated by the inlet screen design.
• Keep the intake area clear of debris to maintain steady flow.
• Store in a dry place and inspect the adapters and hoses for wear after use.
