I can’t believe that I lived without this.

Now I know exactly when my sump pump runs and for how long. The mystery is solved. I am reassured that it will alert me if there are any problems with the pump. [Update: a few months later. Still love this device. I would give it 20 stars if I could. 9 inches of rain yesterday. I was confident that my sump pump was fully functional. I could monitor the performance through the storm.]

Great App

Having just replaced an expensive sump pump which burned itself out due to a faulty float switch staying "on" even though the sump had been emptied, I wanted to find a device which would protect the replacement pump. PumpFuse comes highly reviewed and rated, so I gave it a try. I am totally impressed with the hardware and the associated iOS software for monitoring, alerting, and, if necessary, automatically disabling the pump if it is running dry for any length of time. As a retired electrical engineer with 40+ years of experience, my judgment is that they have included all the necessary and appropriate measurements and associated control logic to ensure reliable and accurate detection and loss prevention. The change log shows a very large and constant initiative to refine and improve their algorithms. The hardware device is also very nicely designed, has excellent Wi-Fi connectivity, it is totally automatic. For sure this is a five star product!

Way better than PumpSpy

This thing is amazing, connects to weak wifi and stays connected unlike PumpSpy.

Almost perfect!!!!

These things will save you money! They work as advertised and are amazing. There is only ONE major issue. In multi pump systems when you get an alert it doesn’t give you the pump name and you have to figure it out by clicking through all your pumps.

Please fix the alerts to provide you with the pump name!

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the great feedback — we’re glad the system has been helpful! You’re absolutely right that this was inconvenient before. We’ve improved this behavior in an upcoming update (version 1.20.157, coming very soon). Now, when you tap on a push notification, the app will automatically open the correct pump/device directly, so you no longer need to click through multiple pumps to find the source of the alert. Thank you for pointing this out — feedback like yours helps us continue improving PumpFuse.

Great product

Super convenient and gives great information about your pump

Very helpful!

I have multiple sump pump’s for my yard drainage. I use 3 fuses and this app lets me monitor each. I can set custom alerts for each pump. Couldn’t imagine having these pumps without the fuses and app.

Amazing

Perfect tool to data log pump runs to help a neighbor understand why they should have pulled a permit first.

Buy this now!

Update: Before PumpFuse, there was nothing like it available on Amazon or elsewhere. Now there are a few PumpFuse ripoff’s available. Stick with the original, you won’t be disappointed!

I have always wanted to be able to collect data on my sump pump run time for various reasons. This product came along, and I have been using it for two years and have collected so much data. It also gives you incredible insight on the precise power draw during each cycle so you can predict when problems are occurring. The hardware is excellent, and the app is absolutely perfect. I love this thing so much and you will too!

Absolute must!

I have three sump pumps for my drainage issues. Having the pump fuses along with this app is a must. Info is key and this system gives the info you need. The alert options are awesome! I highly recommend!!

If you have a sump pump, you need this.

This is app along with their PumpFuse monitor is what folks have been wanting for years. Not only does it tell you when, how long, and the amount of power used for each cycle, but you can set alerts to notify you when the pump fails, starts or stops and more. I just bought and connected a second monitor so I can now go to this single app to see how they are both performing. But most important to me is that I will now get a notification if my secondary pump cycles. Like I said, if you have a sump pump, don’t wait for the disaster to happen when it fails, get this and get notified when it’s about to or when it does.

Peace of Mind

PumpFuse has given me a lot of peace of mind. Now I know my sump's normal output and when I am away, I can check in on it. However, if there is a power outage and you are away from your own wifi, you won't be able to reconnect to the app when the power comes back on until you are home and on your own wifi again. This is annoying... not knowing if the power is on and the sump is working. I would
love to see a line graph of the year and my sump's ups and downs over the course of that year. Definitely worth the investment.

Best product

Best app and the whole system I’ve been looking for so far.

Simple and works

Really like this device. Gives me peace of mind knowing the sump pumps running when I’m not home. Very simple solution. The app is very straight forward. Also interesting to keep track of how the run frequency changes throughout the seasons.

If you have a sump pump, you need this!

Yep, if you have a sump pump, you should have this product. It allows you to see how often your pump goes on, how much power it uses each time, how long it was on each time and will even tell you if/when it fails where ever you are at! That alone is worth the cost of this great product! See my full review for this on Amazon.

Best thing ever

I love it. Tells me the pump is running. Saves me all the time.

Love this app

Very simple app that gets the job done amazingly! Not a lot of crazy functions that can be done, but that’s fine when all you want to do is monitor your sump! This does it well!

PumpFuse is very reliable

I have a lot of confidence in PumpFuse Because I can monitor my sump pump at all times as long as I have access to the Internet.

Easy to set up and effective

I’ve had this for 5 days since our new basement flooded due to a circuit breaker tripping. It’s been raining in and off since then and I’ve set it to monitor when the pump goes on and off. No problems so far and it’s great to be able to see exactly when and how the pump is working.

Reliable app and hardware

Really appreciate that this product ‘just works’. and allows me to sleep during rain storms.
My sump pit is ‘unconventional ‘ and this product (hardware, app, cloud service) has been rock solid. Super happy with it.
