INSTALLATION MANUAL
TYPICAL EFFLUENT INSTALLATION
1. This installation must be in accordance with the National
Electric Code and all applicable local codes and ordinances.
2. For sump applications, follow typical sump installation
instructions (page 3). For effl uent applications, continue to
step 3.
3. Clean the basin of all debris.
4. Set the pump on a solid, level surface. Do not place pump
directly on clay, earth, gravel, or sand. A brick or block
may be installed under the pump to provide a solid base.
5. Verify the fl oat switch has at least 1 inch clearance to
the side wall of the basin and is free of any possible
obstructions.
6. If optional control device or fl oat is used, follow mounting
instructions supplied with device or fl oat.
7. Install discharge plumbing according to local, regional and
state codes. Do not reduce the discharge pipe size below
that which is provided on the pump.
8. If required, drill a 1/8 in. "weep" hole in the discharge pipe
1 in. above the pump discharge. Water stream will be
visible from the hole when the pump is running. The hole
must be cleaned periodically.
9. Install a union to allow easy removal of the pump for
cleaning and service.
10. Install a check valve (required) to prevent back-fl ow. It
should be installed above the union.
11. A gate valve or ball valve should be installed above the
check valve as required by local, regional or state codes.
12. Connect remaining discharge pipe. The remainder of
the discharge line should be as short as possible with a
minimum number of turns.
13. Secure power supply cord to discharge pipe using cable
or zip ties to prevent possible switch entanglement.
14. Connect pump power supply cord to a ground fault
circuit interrupter (GFCI) receptacle.
15. Fill the basin with water. The pump will start when the
water level has reached the switch-on level. Verify the
pump is operating normally. If the discharge line is exposed
to freezing temperatures, the pipe must be positioned
in a downward slope away from the foundation so any
remaining water will drain away and not freeze.
