A 2" puddle pump is a type of submersible pump specifically designed for removing water from shallow areas, often referred to as "puddles." These pumps are ideal for clearing water from construction sites, basements, or other low-lying areas where water tends to collect. The "2-inch" refers to the diameter of the outlet, allowing for a moderate flow rate while being compact and easy to transport.
Puddle pumps are particularly useful for applications where the water level is low and a regular pump might not be efficient enough. They are capable of pumping down to a very low level, often leaving only a small amount of water (typically a few millimeters), which is perfect for drying out flooded areas or clearing residual water. Designed to be lightweight and portable, a 2" puddle pump is durable and can handle both clean and slightly dirty water, making it a versatile tool for various dewatering tasks.
