Exclusions and Better Fits
Avoid placing items here that function as independent infrastructure rather than appliance components. Specifically, do not include products that belong to the following neighbouring categories: Sprinkler, Booster & Irrigation System Pumps for garden and lawn tools, Pool, Fountain & Pond Pumps for water features, Well Pumps & Systems for water extraction, Utility Pumps for general-purpose water movement, or Sump, Sewage & Effluent Pumps for basement or waste management systems.
Feed Implementation
To assign this category, include either the numeric ID 500099 or the full string: Hardware > Hardware Pumps > Home Appliance Pumps. While the attribute is optional, using the specific ID is highly recommended to improve classification accuracy compared to Google's automated system. Always remember that the product_type attribute is distinct and serves only for your own internal site organization.
