SUMP PUMPS

Sump pumps are designed to be placed into a sump basin,

typically in the basement of your home, to remove unwanted

groundwater before it reaches a potential ood level.

Sump pumps operate with a switch – vertical or tethered

switches rise along with the water level, and turn the pump on

when it reaches a certain point. An electronic switch turns the

pump on when it senses the water level has reached a certain

height, when all probes have been submerged by water.

Sump Pumps are available in a variety of constructions from

corrosion resistant thermoplastic, heavy-duty stainless steel,

and durable cast iron.

When choosing a sump pump, consider the volume and

horsepower you need. More active sump pits require a higher

pumping capacity than a less active pit. A higher horsepower

pump moves more volume faster. If replacing a sump pump you

should choose a model equal to or greater than the horsepower of

your current model.

Check valve replacement is recommended whenever a sump

pump is replaced.
