Preparing for installation
□
Disconnect the sump’s plumbing and electrical
connections, allowing for reconnection after the new
cover and lid are installed.

Ensure the installation floor and surrounding area are
clean and smooth. Repair any holes or cracks.
Installing the cover to the floor

Mark the concrete screw locations using the holes (2) on
the cover (A) and set the cover (A) and lid (D) aside.
□
Drill holes at these locations using a 3/16 in. masonry
drill bit.
□
Apply a generous bead of silicone caulk to the underside
of the cover’s (A) lower flange and anchor the cover (A)
to the floor using 1/4 x 1-1/4 concrete screws (not
