Why it matters
MSELTOS rates the MD-TPS-20 at 132 GPH with a 20 ft lift, a higher flow than most furnace pumps. If water comes in faster than it can pump, a built-in alarm sounds, and a safety switch lead can also shut down the equipment.
Three lights show power, pumping and overflow risk. The 0.6 gallon reservoir has four 1.1 in inlets, and the box includes 20 ft of tubing and zip ties.
Who it's for, and who should skip it
Good fit if
- High condensate loads
- Several appliances on one pump
- Owners who want an audible alarm
Look elsewhere if
- Sump pits or basement flooding
- Lifts above the maker's maximum
- Owners who won't clean it twice a year
Pros and cons
Pros
- Built-in alarm
- 132 GPH
- Tubing included
Cons
- Must be installed level
- One-year seller warranty
- Lesser-known brand
Limitations to weigh
- Wiring the safety switch to your furnace or air handler needs basic electrical knowledge; hire a technician if unsure.
- Clean the tank, float and check valve every six months or so; algae and slime cause most condensate pump failures.
