Answer This Question
A:Â Good morning,
You are able to purchase all the parts separately, however the control panel that the pump and the float switch plug into is designed to be connected to a battery. We would like to speak with you about your setup. Please call us at your convenience at 1-800-495-9278 to discuss.
Thank you for your question.

Answer This Question
A:Â Hi there,
The transformer in the battery box is a low amp (2 A) trickle charger and as long as there is enough power going into it, it would be just fine.
Thanks

Easy to install if you have basic pvc plumbing knowledge. I actually secured the pump onto an existing pvc pipe that drains a walkout stairway, the tether switch is attached to the main pump discharge pvc pipe. It's a tight space, and I think the float switch would work better, but using a hose to test and fill the pit, the tether worked everytime. I am using a Mighty Max 100ah battery, which has terminal screws that are narrower than the terminal lead wire connectors. I needed to use narrower washers than what was provided. If you get a battery that has terminal posts, the included terminal adapters would fit the battery lead wires. Who knows when I will actually NEED it, but takes a weight off my shoulders when we might and do lose power.

Does the job! Fits in my sump as a replacement for a pedestal pump that died. I would give it 5 stars, except that:
1) mounting the pump on the main discharge line isn't easy for the non-professional to make it plumb. But that's also a benefit because my sump isn't quite 18" in diameter.
2) I had to use a check valve with rubber sleeves and clamps on the discharge of my main pump. This isn't as stable as if it was all hard-piped.
If your sump is 18" or larger, I recommend purchasing the pre-assembled main pump + backup package. Installation would be much easier.

Works fine when tested. We lost power recently and the alarm came on, but have not had to use it as a back-up. I'll be happy if I never need to use it.

The pump was easy to install and works as expected. This unit came with a bad power cord. Calling customer service at Superior Pump resulted in a very quick response with a new power cord on the way. So even with the bad power cord I gave it 5 stars because stuff happens and Phil at Superior Pump took care of the problem. I would recommend them .
