INSTALLATION HIGHLIGHTS:
If replacing an existing pump, remove the old pump carefully. Place the new
unit on a solid, level foundation in the drained, clean sump pit. Connect the
check valve to the discharge pipe and tighten the hose clamps.
Plug in power and fill the pit with water. If you have installed a submersible
pump it will start automatically at the preset level. Finally, place the discharge
pipe so it carries water several feet away from the foundation.
DIAMETER OF YOUR SUMP PIT?
If your Sump basin is between 11 in. and 14 in. wide, you may use a
pump with a mechanical float. Larger sump basins (14 in. or wider)
can accommodate either mechanical or tethered float switches.
