Step By Step Installation Instructions
NOTE:
The
Basementsaver BP3 Backup Pump
Is A Very Powerful Sump Pump.
Use Teflon tape or
pipe sealant (dope) on ALL threaded fittings. Use PVC Primer & Cement on ALL socket joints.
You may choose to install the BP3 using two size 27 marine deep cycle batteries which will double your

BP3 Installation Diagram
Wiring Schematic
Step 1 - BP3 Pump Unit Assembly:
Remove all packaging and materials and hang all wires over the side and out of the battery box(es).
Before placing the pump into the sump pit, find the 1½
” PVC male threaded adapter, 1½” pipe with vent
hole, check valve, PVC Female adapter, and straight black polypro barbed male hose adapter.
Cement the 1½
” PVC male threaded adapter onto the
bottom end
(
with
vent hole
) of the pipe.
Let the PVC cemented joint set.
Screw this pipe assembly into the sump pump discharge opening (in the sump pump base).
Hint
– installing PTFE (Teflon) tape on the discharge pipe screw threads will help
Cement the
top end
of the pipe (
without
vent hole
) into the bottom of the check valve.
The flow arrow on the Check Valve MUST point upward
!
Cement the spigot end of the PVC female adapter into the top of the check valve.
Do NOT drip glue into the check valve!
Let the PVC cemented joints set.
Thread the male pipe threads of the straight black polypro barbed male hose adapter into the
female threaded opening of the adapter that you just glued into the top of the check valve.
You may double total pumping capacity by
using 2 batteries to power your BP3 battery
backup sump pump.
