Installation
1. Install the pump in a sump pit with a minimum
diameter of 10" (254mm). The sump depth should be
15" minimum (381mm). Construct the sump pit of
tile, concrete, steel or plastic. Check the local codes
for approved materials.
2. The pump should not be installed on clay, earth or
sand surfaces. Clean the sump pit of small stones
and gravel which could clog the pump. Keep the
pump inlet screen clear.

3. Install the discharge plumbing. When using rigid
pipe, use plastic pipe. Wrap the threads with PTFE
pipe thread sealant tape. Screw the pipe into the
pump hand tight +1 – 1-1/2 turns.
NOTICE: Do not use ordinary pipe joint compound
on plastic pipe. Pipe joint compound can attack
plastics and damage the pump.
injury and/or property damage.If a flexible discharge
hose is used, make sure the pump is secure in
the sump to prevent movement. Failure to secure
the pump may allow pump movement, switch
interference and prevent the pump from starting
or stopping.
4. To reduce motor noise and vibrations, a short length
of rubber hose (e.g. radiator hose) can be connected
into the discharge line near the pump using
suitable clamps.
5. Install an in-line check valve to prevent backward
flow through the pump when the pump shuts off.
6. Power Supply: The pump is designed for 115 V.,
60 Hz., operation and requires a minimum 15 amp
(1/3 HP) or 20 amp (1/2 HP) individual branch
circuit. The pump is supplied with a 3-wire cord set
with grounding-type plug.

grounded to a suitable electrical ground such as a

7. If the pump discharge line is exposed to an outside
(7.3m)
sub-freezing atmosphere, the portion of the line

exposed must be installed so any water remaining in

the pipe will drain to the outfall by gravity. Failure to
do this can cause the water trapped in the discharge
to freeze which could result in damage to the pump.

the unit is ready for operation.
9. Check the operation by filling the sump with
water and observing pump operation through one
