Have not been able to find a definitive answer on whether or not this is a bad thing or not.
Inside house basement, inside an enclosed mostly clean basin/pit, Zoeller 50/90 brand, and a weep hole present on output with check valve. I added a "HyrdoCheck" system to it where there are high/low on/off sensors that triggers the pump on and off based on where the two sensors are placed instead of the pump's float. I have the low/off sensor almost touching the bottom of the pit, on purpose.
When the pump runs, it runs until no water is left and you can hear it gurgle/sucking up every last drop until it shuts off. Worse case it's only running "dry" for a second. Is there any negative to doing it this way? I've had it this way for months with no immediate issues, should I be worried about longevity or anything else?
