The following are minimum requirements in order to protect your residence from flooding. It
is a small investment but it is your personal responsibility to protect your home, family and
valuables. Failure to comply with the following requirements will also void your warranty :
- Two (2) pumps have to be installed in the sewage pit. The first pump as a primary pump
and the second pump as the backup unit.
- An alarm system model 450455 has to be installed to advise you of any malfunctions.
Pump selection, proper and adequate installation are a must to comply with local by-laws and
need to be adhered to.
We recommend that you install your pump and basin in a clean location
STEP 1
where there is adequate room for servicing at a later date. Protection
from freezing temperatures and good ventilation should be considered
as well, to provide the pump an environment for long life. Assuming
that you have a sump pit located in your basement floor. Your sump
pit should be constructed from concrete, brick, tile or more recently a
sump basin made from plastic and/or fiberglass. The minimum size
of your sump pit must be 18'' in diameter and no less than 25'' deep.
Friction lossees in the discharge pipe must be taken into consideration
when many elbows and fittings are installed in the discharge line.
Each elbows and fittings must be considered as 1 feet of head.
Never run the pump dry. Damage to the seal may occur. THE RUN OF
THE PIPE FROM THE CHECK VALVE MUST NEVER BE SLOPING
DOWNWARD EXCEPT AT THE FINAL CONNECTION TO THE EXISTING
WASTE OR DRAIN LINE.
For a new installation, install your sewage basin in the excavation you
STEP 2
have provided in the basement floor of your home. Connect the necessary
piping from your shower trap, toilet, etc., to the inlet of your sewage basin,
with the proper pipe and fittings (see diagram).
