They make pumps for ice machines to pump the drain water, I don't see why it shouldn't work. The pumps about the size of a shoe box.

I think it's actually a 10cm drop.

Whats the volume and temp of the waste water from the steam oven?

Thanks for the posts! I will have to do some research into how the ice machine pumps work. That sounds great though! We definitely have room for a machine the size of a shoe box.

The volume of water would be about 1-2L per hour max, not too much. The temperature would be relatively high, as it is steam that has condensated and is leaving the machine.

wow! i was just checking out the franklin chef ice maker pumps. That's awesome! Exactly what we need!!!!! And it looks easy to install.

Previoulsy I was looking at home depot, etc, in the plumbing section and couldn't find anything. These must be in the appliance section.

THANK YOU!!!!! Web Garden is the best.

My point in asking what the temp was the standard off the shelf condensate pump such as the Franklin Chef ice maker pump which is a condensate pump manufactured by Little Giant wont hold up to the 200+ degree temps drained into it.

hmmm, this poses a problem. Yes, I checked now, and it seems that they can only handle up to 50C... There don't seem to be many for high temp, and none with the tank built in, which would have been nice.
