I purchased this pump from Sump Pumps Direct and love it. We've had the worst rainy week here in the last 2 years. The pump is triggering once a minute right now. My concern is that is not good for the pump. My pit is narrow but fairly deep, so each cycle is only pumping maybe 2 gallons. The 10 second shut off is not the issue as the pit is pumped dry. Is there any other float options, to allow more water in the pit before triggering. I have the float as high as possible given the piping and too high of course will affect the backup float.

HI.
Comparing this to the Liberty combo. Liberty states it has solid handling. My washing machine drains into my sumo pit so that includes lint from clothes...can this pump handle that? And also, what battery choices are recommended for back up?

Are the switches adjustable so I can set the water height for them to turn on? Does the float turn off the pump or does it run for a set period of time?

I recently purchased this pump Unfortunately after a heavy rain with both pumps running I still had an overflow. Would running separate 1.5 discharge lines for each pump increase the GPH capability? Seems like the Y in the lines might create a bottle neck?

Jim - Any issue wth installing a redundant check valve on the discharge pipe prior to connection to the unit...in case one of the valves in the unit fails? Would it impede flow in any way on a 10' lift?

Hi Jim, thanks for answering my questions about the PS-C33. It sounds like a great combination pump! One thing I’m concerned about is surge protection, as we get a lot of storms in Minnesota. Do you know what type of surge protector is recommended for this unit?
Thanks, Terry

Jim, why would you recommend this combo as "Better" over the "Good" Basement Watchdog 1/2 HP unit when the other unit has more power in the primary and backup pumps? I'm considering a combo unit and would love to hear your thoughts.
