Reason #367 For Having a Pond; Pond Pumps are Multi-Purpose
The SO and I purchased a new fancy-schmancy bed tonight. We were draining
the old water bed, when we realized the siphon leaks. We found this the hard way, downstairs of course. So as I mopped up the water, I began to wonder if my 100gph "keep a hole in the ice" pump could accept a hose on the inlet. It does!!! The bed is almost empty! -- BV Webporgmaster of iheartmypond.com http://www.iheartmypond.com Help IHeartMyPond.com, by doing all of your eBay shopping via our eBay Affiliate Link: http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-1609574-10357516.

I'll have to remember this. Normally we use a pump that one connects to a
drill, neither efficient or quiet. ~ jan On Sun, 20 Mar 2005 22:08:44 -0500, "Benign Vanilla" wrote: The SO and I purchased a new fancy-schmancy bed tonight.

Just FYI...the pump could not suck the matress totally dry. We ended up running a hose out the window and using the leaking siphon out there to get ALL of the water out. -- BV Webporgmaster of iheartmypond.com http://www.iheartmypond.com Help IHeartMyPond.com, by doing all of your eBay shopping via our eBay Affiliate Link: http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-1609574-10357516.

We used the Bissell steam cleaner nozzle to suck it dry. Bet a shop vac would work too. ~ jan ~Power to the Porg, Flow On!~
