If your Everbilt Water Pump isn't starting, here are a few things you can try: * Replace the fuse. * Reset the breaker. * Ensure the plug is securely in place. * Clean the plug prongs. * Allow the water level to rise to 1-1/4 in. or more. * Remove any blockages. * If none of these steps work, consider replacing the pump.
What to do if my Everbilt UT03301 Water Pump is unable to pump out water?
If your Everbilt Water Pump isn't pumping water, try these steps: 1. Clean the screen. 2. Straighten the hose to remove any kinks. 3. Clean the anti-air lock hole. 4. Use a shorter hose if possible. 5. Reassemble or replace the impeller. 6. Clean the probes.
Why does my Everbilt UT03301 Water Pump motor just hum but not run?
If your Everbilt Water Pump motor is humming but the pump isn't running, there might be a few reasons: * The impeller could be stuck or jammed with debris. Inspect the impeller area and remove any debris. Make sure the impeller rotates freely. * The motor might be locked up. Check the cooling shroud and/or vents in the motor case for foreign objects or shifting. Remove any objects and/or straighten the motor shroud. * If the above steps don't resolve the issue, the motor may have failed, and you may need to replace the pump.
What to do if my Everbilt Water Pump runs and moves less water than expected?
If your Everbilt Water Pump is running and moving water, but the quantity is less than it should be, consider the following: * The discharge hose may be restrictive. If you're using a hose that is narrower than the pump discharge, or a long hose, the pump won't discharge water at the rate it was designed for. Use a shorter, fatter hose. * Debris may be partially blocking the intake area. Remove any debris and ensure the intake area is clear for optimum performance. * The discharge elevation might be too high. The higher the discharge hose goes, the less water the pump can move. * The impeller or other internal parts may be worn or damaged. Inspect the impeller, diffuser, and other internal parts for wear and damage. Repair as needed.
What to do if my Everbilt Water Pump motor does not run or make any noise at all?
If your Everbilt Water Pump motor isn't running or making any noise, check these items: 1. Make sure the pump is getting power. Check the outlet and your home's fuse or circuit breaker panel. Ensure the pump is plugged in properly. 2. Ensure the water sensing probes are submerged in at least 1-1/4 in. of water and that the pump is sitting flat. 3. Check the water sensing probes for damage or debris. Remove the sensor protector screen and flush the sensor housing with fresh water. 4. The pump may have overheated from continuous use. Allow the pump to cool before the next use. 5. If the liquid temperature is below 30 degrees F or above 77 degrees F, do not operate the pump. 6. If all items above check out OK, the motor may have failed. Replace the pump.
Why is the impeller on my Everbilt Water Pump wearing out so quickly?
The impeller on your Everbilt Water Pump might be wearing out quickly due to these reasons: * Sand, dirt, or other grit in the water is accelerating wear. Everbilt utility pumps are designed to pump clear water. If there's dirt or grit, the internal parts will wear faster. * Some liquid other than water is being pumped. Many liquids have very little lubricating qualities. Everbilt utility pumps are all designed to pump clear fresh water.
What causes an impeller to break on Everbilt UT03301?
Everbilt utility pumps use a thermoplastic impeller. An impeller can break on your Everbilt Water Pump if the pump has picked up debris that caused the damage. Care must be used to try to keep debris from being drawn into the pump which will damage it.
What to do if my Everbilt UT03301 motor runs but no water is discharged?
If your Everbilt Water Pump's motor is running but no water is coming out, here are a few things to check: * If your pump has an anti-airlock hole, make sure it's clear. * Lay the pump on its side and then stand it upright in the water to help air escape. * Ensure the discharge hose or pipe isn't blocked or too narrow. Check the manual for the maximum length of pipe/hose your pump can handle and do not use a hose/pipe narrower than the pump's discharge. * Make sure the discharge hose/pipe isn't going up too high. Every pump has a maximum "head" capability, which is the highest it can lift water. Do not route the discharge hose/pipe higher than the rating. * Inspect the impeller and volute for wear or breakage. Repair or rebuild as needed. Check for clogs in the impeller screen a...

The Everbilt Submersible Utility Pump (SKU#1000026578, Model#UT03301) is a 1/3 HP centrifugal utility pump designed for water removal applications. It is engineered to automatically drain or remove water from various flooded areas such as pits, sinks, window wells, basements, swimming pool covers, boats, and low spots in yards. This pump is specifically designed for pumping clear water and is not intended for use with flammable or explosive liquids like oil, gasoline, kerosene, or ethanol, nor in the presence of their vapors, as this could lead to explosions or fires, resulting in property damage, serious personal injury, or death.
The pump is equipped with water detector sensors, allowing it to automatically start operating when the water level exceeds 1-1/4 inches. It will continue to pump water until the level drops to 1/4 inch, then restart when the water level again reaches 1-1/4 inches. For proper operation, the pump must be placed upright on a solid base in the flooded area. It comes with a 3/4 in. garden hose adapter for easy connection to a standard garden hose or a 1-1/4 in. hose kit (not included) for faster water removal. When connecting a garden hose, it is crucial to ensure the connector has a rubber gasket to minimize leaks. To maximize flow rate and minimize pressure loss, users are advised to use a larger inner diameter hose or shorten the hose length. The discharge line must be securely attached before starting the pump to prevent it from whipping, which could cause personal injury or property damage.
The pump is designed with an anti-airlock hole to prevent air from becoming trapped inside, which would hinder its ability to pump water even when fully submerged. This hole allows air to escape, ensuring proper operation. It is important not to remove or plug this hole, as leakage of air or water from it is normal and necessary for anti-airlock purposes.
To ensure optimal performance and longevity, regular maintenance is crucial.
The manual provides a comprehensive troubleshooting guide for common issues such as the motor running but no water being discharged, the pump humming but not running, or the pump not running at all. Solutions include checking for airlocks, blockages in the discharge hose/pipe, proper installation of check valves, clearing debris from the impeller, ensuring adequate power supply, and verifying that water sensing probes are submerged and clean. If internal sensing circuitry fails, the pump may still function as a standard utility pump, but its automatic sensing feature will not work. If the motor has failed, the pump needs to be replaced.
