The SumpBox™ is shipped factory assembled; inspect tank, pump, float(s), and accessories for shipping damage. Contact your
dealer with any problems prior to installation.
2.
Read all instructions and familiarize yourself with the unit's operation prior to proceeding with the installation. Read pump
specifications to assure pump has adequate head performance prior to installation.

prong plug. To reduce the risk of electric shock, be certain that the SumpBox™ unit is connected only to a
properly grounded grounding-type receptacle. This receptacle may be protected by a ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI). All electrical circuitry should be installed in accordance with the National Electric Code
(NEC) and all applicable local codes or ordinances. Never remove the ground pin from the plug. Always wear
rubber boots when water is on the floor and you must unplug the pump.

Never use an extension cord.
pump power cord, and at least 4 feet above floor level to minimize possible hazards from flood
conditions.
5.
Check to ensure that your power source is adequate to handle the pump amperage. Pump amperage can be found on the
nameplate and/or the product literature. Ensure that the electrical supply circuit is equipped with fuses or breakers of the proper
capacity.
6.
It is recommended that a separate branch circuit be installed for the pump. Such a branch circuit should be sized in accordance
with the NEC.
7.
Each electrical outlet should be tested to ensure that a proper ground has been established. A UL listed circuit analyzer will
indicate if the power, neutral, and ground wire are properly connected.
8.
A qualified licensed electrician should install and test all electrical circuits.
9.
All plumbing (waste and vent) should done by a qualified professional and in accordance with applicable codes.
10.
Liquid temperature must not exceed 140F (60C).
11. Always disconnect the pump from the power source prior to removing or servicing. Keep clear of suction and discharge openings,
and to prevent injury, never insert fingers into pump while it is plugged in.
12. Tools required prior to installation: Teflon pipe tape, a hacksaw (or something similar), and a hammer or small sledge hammer.

Rough-In
IMPORTANT: During the rough-in process the clear disposable protective cover should remain on the system to protect the
covers and accessories from dirt, gravel, concrete, and other objects.
A.
Excavation: Choose a location in the basement that will allow easy access to the
system. Excavate the hole as small as possible, with a minimum recommended
8" clearance around the tank. Never place the basin directly in contact with rocks
or other sharp objects. Place only fine, 1/8" to 3/4" pea gravel or 1/8" to 1/2"
washed, crushed stone as bedding between the basin and the hole walls. Do not
use sand or native soil as backfill. Properly compact underneath the basin to
provide a solid, level base that can support the weight of the filled basin.
B.
Staking Locators: The SumpBox™ basin has 4 staking features in the anti-
flotation flange that will accept up to 1/2" rebar (see fig. 1). Staking will help
support the system during inlet connection and backfill.
Inlet Connection and Initial Backfill: Only fine, 1/8" to 3/4" pea gravel or 1/8" to
