1 / 76699 SUB 1500 1/4 HP Submersible Utility Pump, 1500 GPH
The 6699 SUB 1500 is a corded submersible utility pump listed at 1/4 hp and up to 1500 GPH. Its stated 23-foot lift and included hose adapters suit temporary water removal and tankless-heater flushing, but the listing says not to use it with dirty water or expandable hoses.
At a glance
- The listing states a maximum flow of 1500 GPH and a maximum lift of 23 feet. These are separate limits, not a guaranteed flow at maximum lift.
- The bottom screen is described as passing solids up to 1/5 inch and pumping water down to 1/12 inch from the surface.
- Two hose adapters are listed: a 1-inch discharge adapter and a 3/4-inch garden hose adapter.
- The stated uses include tankless water-heater flushing, hot tubs, pools, garden ponds and flooded areas.

Pros and cons
Pros
- The two stated hose adapters offer connection options for 1-inch discharge and 3/4-inch garden hoses.
- A listed 10-foot cord gives some reach from the outlet, though it does not establish that an extension cord is suitable.
- The stated low-water draw level may help with shallow draining where the surface is even.
Cons
- The listing rules out dirty water and expandable hoses, limiting the types of water and hose setups it is intended to handle.

What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
Listing details are inconsistent about flow presentation, giving 1500GPH in the title and specification while also listing 25 gpm as maximum flow. The page does not establish flow under a particular lift or hose setup. Confirm the expected operating conditions and adapter compatibility before purchase.

Customer feedback reports reliable operation, convenience and useful pumping capacity, particularly for tankless water-heater flushing. Experiences are mixed on build quality, pumping speed and value, with reports of cracked housing and the pump tipping on its side. The listed 25 gpm maximum is relevant to expected capacity, but does not settle those differing experiences or promise a particular rate in a given setup.
Positive themes
- Customers report reliability and ease of use, including convenient plug-in operation.
Negative themes
- Some customers report housing cracks and the pump tipping onto its side.
Mixed feedback
- Feedback differs on pumping speed and power, build quality and value for money.
Frequently asked questions
Can this pump handle dirty water?
The listing says it is not suitable for dirty water. It describes a bottom screen that handles solids up to 1/5 inch, but that does not override the stated restriction.
What hose connections are listed?
The page lists a 1-inch discharge hose adapter and a 3/4-inch garden hose adapter. Check that your hose setup matches before use.
How low can it pump water?
The specification lists a lowest water-sucking level of 1/12 inch. This is a listing claim and may depend on the surface and setup.
Is the listed maximum flow guaranteed at the maximum lift?
No such combined performance is stated. The page lists 25 gpm and a maximum lifting height of 23 feet separately, so it does not confirm flow at that height.
