Tired of emptying the vac
Hi Bob
Years ago had a similar problem and I got tired of having to carry the shop vac out to empty it. At got bright idea of using a small submersible pump to pump out the vac base with a long hose to dump water far away from the shop. Then got the bright idea of plumbing the pump through the side of the base to connect the hose, which allowed the vacuum to pick up water at the same time it is being pumped out of the building.
Last time used the rig was to pick up the water off the floor of the shop while washing the HUP in the dead off winter.
Ah the joys of living with frozen ground, been a long hard winter, but have heart mud season is yet to come.
Cheers Phil
