Basepump is an extremely reliable, very powerful, water powered backup sump pump system. With no battery to wear out or maintain, no charger to plug in or monitor, it is designed as an automatic, independent system from the primary sump pump.
Basepump is essentially in a class by itself. Mounted on the ceiling, high above the sump, it doesn't have to fight the downward force of the water that most competitors' pumps must push up vertically. For this reason, Basepump consistently removes more water per hour than other water powered backup sump pumps and even rivals the best battery powered backup sump pumps, short- and long- term. Period. So instead of a flooded basement because of a sump pump failure or a power failure, install a water powered Basepump backup sump pump before it happens.
Theory of Operation:
1. The water in your sump pit goes above normal for whatever reason: the float stuck against the side of the sump, or the power failed, or there's just too much water to handle.
2. A second float mounted above the normal high water level, is lifted when the water rises too high.
3. This activates a valve, sending municipal water under pressure through the Basepump Ejector.
4. Acting like a giant soda straw, it draws the sump water up from the sump pit and ejects it to the outdoors.
5. As the water is removed from the pit, the float returns to its lowest level, and after a pre-set period of time, the pumping stops until the water rises above normal again.
