Bilge-B-Dry Single Pump 12v Dry Biilge System
Bilge-B-Dry Single Pump 12v Dry Biilge System Product Description
Transform Your Boat's Bilge into a Dry, Odor-Free Zone
Imagine stepping aboard your boat after a stormy outing or a thorough washdown, only to find lingering dampness in the bilge causing musty smells, potential mold growth, and hidden corrosion on wiring and gear. Traditional bilge pumps often leave behind those stubborn last inches of water, especially in modern stepped-hull designs where water pools forward of the step. That's where this innovative dry bilge system shines, quietly and efficiently sucking up every drop to keep your vessel pristine.
Unlike standard pumps that falter at low water levels or risk burnout when running dry, this self-priming diaphragm pump thrives in those conditions. It's built for real-world boating challenges—think heavy rain, sea spray, or even minor leaks—ensuring your cabin stays fresh and your electronics protected. Boaters rave about the peace of mind from its smart scheduling, letting you set custom cycles via a intuitive mobile app, so your bilge stays managed even when you're ashore.
Smart Features That Set It Apart
- App-Controlled Customization: Pair with your smartphone for tailored pump schedules, remote monitoring, and on-demand operation—perfect for forgetting about manual switches.
- Run-Dry Durability: The diaphragm design handles extended dry runs without wear, extending pump life to over 1,000 hours of reliable service.
- Compact and Versatile: Slim profile fits tight spaces in any orientation, ideal for challenging bilge layouts on sailboats, powerboats, or yachts.
- Eco-Friendly Pickup: Low-profile intake with a replaceable filter grabs water efficiently while minimizing debris intake and environmental impact.
- Flexible Wiring: Quick-disconnect harness supports integration with float switches, helm controls, or sensors for automated setups.
Even without the app, it defaults to smart cycling—two minutes every six hours—keeping things simple for traditionalists.
How the Dry Bilge Magic Happens
This system excels at removing water where others can't. The powerful yet efficient 12V pump pulls up to 0.25 gallons per minute with a 10-foot head lift and 5-foot suction, even from shallow pools. Internal plumbing streamlines flow, while the heavy-duty enclosure withstands the marine environment. Connect via Wi-Fi for app control, or let the onboard board handle automatic cycles. Over time, you'll notice less humidity, fewer odors, and a noticeably drier interior that preserves your boat's value.
Pro tip for stepped-hull owners: Position the rectangular pickup forward to target those hard-to-reach puddles, transforming problem areas into dry zones.
Effortless Installation for Any Boater
Setting it up takes minutes, not hours. Mount the compact enclosure (just 4.1" H x 6.8" W x 7" L) securely, attach the provided 10 feet of 1/4" input tubing to the pickup and 6 feet of 3/8" output tubing to your thru-hull. Wire to your 12V battery (8-14VDC range) using the plug-and-play harness. Download the free app, scan the QR code, and customize away. For auto-triggering, add a float switch—common upgrade for unattended boats.
