TOPIC: How many sump pumps do you need????

How many sump pumps do you need???? 14 years 7 months ago #20162

In this home i inspected there were three sumps alongside each other.
The home also has two Ejector pump set ups, one in front and one RIGHT next to basement toilet.

The home owner was a tradesman, and probably flooded a few times and went nuts..lol

This was the [glow=red,2,300]Ejector [/glow]that was right next to the toilet in basement.

I hope the pump wasn't too strong.....

Wow. Okay, you're going to need to explain to this Californian. What the heck is the ejector for? Launching matter into space when someone flushes?

hahahahahahahaa no- what it does is safely pumps larger "waste" material back into the public sewer system- since most typical plumbing systems rely on gravity there are times when assistance is needed - to avoid backups and such , so a ejector helps it along...
btw- some ejectors actually grind up waste,

This was the ejector located in THE SAME HOME as the three sumps and ejector by the toilet.
This was located towards the front of the home.
