Customer Reviews for Everbilt Radon Mitigation Basin Cover

Nice kit, adapters for everything. Easy install, worth the extra $$. Very sturdy.

Great sealed sump cover. Lots of options available for your sump/drain needs. Take your time and make sure everything is aligned correctly before you start drilling...there's a lot of bolts to get installed. Also be aware that the nuts in the outer ring that hold the lid down are just held in by friction and can be pushed out when trying to start the lid bolts.

Unit is good, but I thought there were some challenges to assembly! Aligning the top cover to the base and getting the screws to line up was difficult. When putting in the screws into the cover a couple of the plastic bolt grommets on the underside fell out. Had to take cover off and insert again. Overall, I'm very happy with the unit and it has some good features such as a plexiglass window to see into the sump basin! It also includes extra parts for different size pipes.

Durable, strong, heavy duty, comes with many adapters. Well built.

Had all the different size gaskets that I needed to make sure sump pit was well sealed

Worked as designed. Easy install

Top quality product, but make sure it will fit in the target area. The outside diameter is 24”.

Well built and functional. The manufacture should glue the nuts on the inside of the shell so they don't pop out when installing. They do include 4 extra nuts so you don't have to try to fish them out of the sump. Go ahead and buy this, BUT If you have time before you install, glue the nuts into the shell. You'll be glad you did!

Worked well, sturdy!

unit was easy to install until i got to the top 8 bolts. The gasket kept falling off the bolts, then to make matters worse the square pegs with the threads in them are pushed up from the bottom of the cover. when attempting to start the bolts by hand the pegs fell out into the sump pump crock. the 4 extra pegs the give you dont fit the top cover bolts. need to fix or redesign these square pegs. once i got it installed and sealed it works great!

It seems well made and I like the sight window. Some of the adaptors/flat plates don't have o-rings. One of the backing nuts for the top plate fell out of the base and into the sump hole so I had to take the bolts out and when I did that of course the big rubber gasket fell into the hole. The rubber plug for the power cord only has one hole. You made need to drill more. Plus my sump pump backup was hard wired so be prepared to possibly splice wires if that is your case.

Should sell with drill bit and cement screws included for convenience. Some may not know what to buy. Made very well.

Easy to assemble. Cost was perfect.

The cover is large enough to fit over nearly any sump pit and has enough parts provided to allow for the majority of piping configurations. There is some care required to align the piping with the cover openings upon installation but overall it's a pretty simple task.

It is easy to install and it is the best!

This cover was the perfect solution for my sump pump tank. The old lid had totally rusted away and there was no possibility of reusing the old screw holes. This new lid fit right over the old fittings and attached nicely to the cement floor. I appreciated all the different size fittings that came with it that made the installation job easy for me.

Good solid cover. Made by Jackel which makes great products, the ever built brand is just on the box it comes in. Main lid gasket is poorly designed. To thin and does not stay in place. It could have been an inch wide with locating barbs poking into corresponding holes on the base. I also did not get the 1.5 inch pipe gasket, missing from the box and not pre-installed on the lid fitting. I have installed two of these so far and they have been great otherwise. I drill a hole sized for a 4 inch test plug which is air tight when installed but provides an easy arm hole to mess with the pump if needed without removing the cover. The window is a nice feature.

Very heavy duty and easy to install!

Great fit and quality materials.

Overall this product met expectations, however there area number of design deficiencies that must be corrected. First, the cover gasket is very difficult to work with, it should be preinstalled at the factory and "glued" in place with silicone. The gasket is too thin and pliable, it kept coming undone as I tried to install the cover. Second, the bolts for the cover can easily be pushed out as they sit upside down on the cover and held in place by friction. Here too I recommend that they be siliconed in place at the factory. Finally, there is no give to the pipe seals, they are hard plastic with standard plumbing gaskets. My pump shifted after a couple of weeks of use and as a result the shut off valve is now leaking slightly due to this lack of flexibility.

top notch.....plug grommet was missing....called the number on instructions and they answered phone. they sent grommet asap. super easy and great. this is the jackel brand just branded some depot name everbilt. and this is best place to buy it....not ebay or others. my only recommendation would be the seal to sit inside or better on lip....it was hard to get seal down and then top. used template to drill the 1.25 drain from side....worked great. and all in all my skills just construction 202 level.....303 on a good day.

cover was strong , no problems with that. but the included gasket that seals the lid does not work. will not stay on the pit flange. instructions say to install gasket on bottom of lid , using the bolts to hold in place. the gasket does not fit the circumference of the pit. when the tabs are placed over the mounting bolts, the gasket pulls taunt between them and will not complete the seal needed between the lid and pit to accomplish the radon seal. that is why the product was bought and installed . had to purchase separate gasket material to accomplish the feat.
