Safety Information and Introduction
(continued)
Normally accepted materials are galvanized pipe, rigid plastic pipe or acceptable
flexible pipe or hose. Where the discharge pipe is long, a check valve is often
employed to prevent the water from flowing back into the sump when the pump
turns off. If the discharge is directed into a sanitary sewer, a suitable anti-siphon
device or a free flow check valve should be inserted in the line to prevent back-
flow into the pit.
Pump Installation
When the sump, electrical and discharge plumbing installation is complete and
ready for the pump, clean all solid debris from the pit. Complete the plumbing
connection to the pump and then plug the pump into the electrical outlet. A few
extra minutes to test the sump pump installation are now in order.
Fill the sump with water, note the turn on and turn off level of the pump, and the
pumping cycle. This will allow you to calculate the approximate discharge flow of
the pump system. If everything is operating properly, install the sump cover.
