Zoeller Shower & Sink Drain Pumps

Zoeller Shower & Sink Drain Pumps: Engineering Gravity Out of the Equation

When gravity isn't on your side, Zoeller is. For homeowners and contractors tackling below-grade installations—finished basements, wet bars, utility rooms, or any space where the floor drain sits below the main sewer line—Zoeller's shower and sink drain pumps offer a proven, professional-grade solution that eliminates the need to break concrete or reroute plumbing.

Founded in 1939, Zoeller is widely recognized as one of the oldest family-owned submersible pump manufacturers in North America. That longevity is built on an unwavering commitment to quality: every Zoeller pump is 100% factory-tested underwater before it ever reaches a customer, ensuring performance right out of the box.

What Sets Zoeller Drain Pumps Apart

At the heart of Zoeller's drain pump lineup is the Model 105 Drain Pump System—a preassembled, automatic package built around the trusted M53 submersible pump. Designed specifically for gray-water applications like sink drains, laundry trays, wet bars, ice machine discharge, and AC condensate, the Model 105 delivers practical drainage where traditional gravity systems fall short.

• Non-clogging vortex impeller: Zoeller drain pumps use a vortex impeller design capable of passing solids up to 1/2" in diameter, handling laundry lint, food particles, and other debris without backing up or clogging.
• Compact, corrosion-resistant basin: The polypropylene basin measures just 11-3/4" x 12-1/2", making it easy to tuck inside a base cabinet, under a utility sink, or into other tight spaces.
• Pre-plumbed convenience: Discharge, vent, and inlet openings are already built into the basin lid—no guesswork, no extra drilling. The system ships complete with the automatic pump, tank assembly, and check valve.
• Cast-iron pump housing: The M53 core pump uses a cast-iron housing for superior durability and heat dissipation, ideal for long-term residential duty.
• 3-year limited warranty: Every Model 105 system is backed by a 3-year limited manufacturer's warranty, reflecting Zoeller's confidence in the quality of their workmanship.

Scalable Solutions for Every Application

While the Model 105 handles standard sink drain applications, Zoeller also offers higher-capacity drain pump models for demanding situations. For high-head or high-flow requirements—such as commercial sink applications or installations with long horizontal discharge runs—Zoeller engineers a broader drain pump range to match the job. The company's pre-plumbed, all-in-one packaging philosophy carries across the lineup, so whether you're a seasoned plumber or a motivated DIYer, getting the right system installed quickly and confidently is always the goal.

With 85% of its products made in the USA and backed by fourth-generation family ownership, Zoeller brings a heritage of accountability to every pump it ships. If you need a dependable drain pump that installs cleanly and operates reliably for years, Zoeller's shower and sink drain pump systems deserve a close look.
