The Jabsco Par-Max Shower Drain/General Purpose Pump (32601-0092) is a versatile, durable, and high-performance pump designed for marine, RV, and general fluid-transfer applications. Delivering up to 3.5 gallons per minute (GPM) at 25 psi, this 12 VDC pump combines efficient water handling with reliable operation and easy integration.
Equipped with a built-in strainer, the Par-Max pump helps protect the impeller from debris while maintaining steady performance, making it ideal for shower drain duty, bilge transfer, washdown systems, utility water transfer, livewell circulation, and general fluid movement.
With a flow rate of up to 3.5 GPM, the Jabsco Par-Max pump handles moderate water demand with ease. Whether you’re draining a shower sump, circulating freshwater, or moving water between tanks, this pump delivers consistent, reliable output every time.
Designed to run on 12 VDC power, the Par-Max pump integrates seamlessly with standard marine and RV electrical systems. Its efficient motor provides dependable performance with minimal current draw, making it suitable for battery-powered applications.
The included strainer helps prevent debris and solids from entering the pump chamber, reducing the risk of clogs and extending the life of the pump. The easy-to-access strainer cover also simplifies maintenance and service.
The versatility of the Par-Max pump makes it a useful solution for multiple scenarios:
Shower drain and sump systems
Bilge and low-volume water transfer
Livewell or bait tank circulation
Washdown and cleaning systems
Utility water transfer on boats and RVs

Because this pump can pull a vacuum (self-prime), you don't have to mount it in the "gunk" at the bottom of a shower sump You can mount it on a nearby bulkhead or in a dry locker where it stays clean and the electrical connections stay dry
The 3-chamber diaphragm design provides a smooth, steady flow and allows the pump to run dry without damage. If the shower is empty but the pump is accidentally left on, the motor will not overheat or melt the internal components.
While primarily used for waste drainage, this pump includes a 25 psi pressure switch. This means it can also be used as a light-duty freshwater delivery pump or a deck washdown pump for small skiffs.
The Par-Max series is engineered with noise-dampening rubber feet and a bypass valve that reduces "pulsation" and water hammer, making it one of the quieter pumps in its class.

"Always install the included Pumpgard Strainer on the intake side of the pump. Shower water is notorious for containing hair and carpet fibers that can get stuck in the pump's check valves, causing it to lose its prime. With the clear-top strainer, you can see at a glance when it needs to be cleaned without having to take the plumbing apart."
