ejector pump

Hello everyone, We are getting ready to purchase and install an ejector pump in our currently unfinished basement. I am building a mechanical room near our main drain. For the pump, there will be about 8' of rise and less than 10 feet of run to reach the main drain. The pump will need to drain...

Hello! I'm a DIYer planning out our basement remodel. I'm trying to get everything all laid out before filing for permits. Location is Spokane County, WA. Code is UPC. I'm currently working on the DWV layout. I am trying to figure out the best layout for the drain system. It will all be...

I have a typical loud thump when my ejector pump goes off, obviously from my check valve. I went to the big box store but they don't sell 2" quiet/silent/klunkless CVs. They actually have a licensed plumber working there, which is a surprise. He told me when he installs pumps he puts a wye...

Issues started with intermittent starts. I thought it was a sticky float. One day, no start at all and a full pit. So, I pulled the pump and lifted float to turn it on. It won't start. No hum, nothing. I'd like to fix it if possible. I purchased it 'lightly' used (looking pretty new) and it's...

We're finishing our basement and have installed a holding tank with ejector pump for the waste. Currently we have the pump connecting to an existing 2" line, which also has the kitchen sink (about 16 feet up the pipe) and a washing machine (about 12 feet down the pipe). I'm wondering if...

I just finished building my house, the plumber/electrician I hired wasn't all that as the saying goes. I won't go into all the issues but this one. He did not cover his trenches he said he thought I would do it with my blade on my tractor. Anyway, from the house to the septic is 95 feet. I...

Hi everyone, I installed a sewage pump (liberty pro 380) when I redid the chalet basement. I’m now at the step of connecting it to the main waste line, about 6 feet above. I’m trying to decide which check valve and ball valve I should use. For the CV, I’m considering the Zoeller 30-0151...

I am a plumbing designer, I recently got a comment from one plumbing contractor about the horizontal distance between the fixtures to the ejector pump, the distance between my furthest fixture to the ejector pump is around 30', and he said it is the pitch required for the distance is far exceed...
