Still running the Sicce 9.0 return pump? Any idea how much flow you are getting from it in the display. I'm considering a Syncra ADV 10.0 pump for a basement sump room as well.

I run 66% from the basement.
I'll guess at 14' head straight up with 3 90° elbows to put over the back of the tank return. 1" pipe all the way.
360ish gph.
Haven't cleaned the pump in well over a year.

Yep. It’s set and forget. No idea of the GPH but I’m running it at 90% percent. I have 2 returns each return is split up into 2 loctites each with 2 nozzles so a total of 8 outputs. Flow is fine but I use my gyres to move water not the return pump.

Yeah great pumps. And with 5 year warranty can’t be beat. Waiting to see if they come out with a few bigger pumps.

My wife bought mine for me at Christmas 2017.
6.5 years and still going. I cleaned it twice.
I wish it had the temperature sensor the new models have.

Eh, mine has it. Not sure how accurate it is. I use it as a backup temp to my Inkbird. At least it lets me know if I’m in the ballpark temp-wise or not. And it does send alerts.

 

[Ironwill723]

Yeah... thats why I was looking at the ADV 10.0, I believe it is slightly stronger than the SDC 9.0 but uses the same pump housing.

Yes, that model is AC also.

 

[JGT]

Yes, that model is AC also.

Yes, more juice. SDC is like 80watts.

 

[Ironwill723]

Yes, more juice. SDC is like 80watts.

Yes, the 10.0 is 90 watts I believe. Still pretty good for 2700gph.
