When an ordinary backup sump pump is installed by teeing into the discharge pipe just above the main sump pump, it is often so close to the exit of the main pump that it leaves very little room for the check valve to fit below it. This often means that the check valve must be positioned only inches away from all the pressure and turbulence from the main pump's impeller. As a result, the check valve itself often becomes broken inside or develops a hole in it from the daily beating it takes. When the day arrives that the backup pump has to go on, instead of removing water, it recycles it back down through the damaged check valve and the basement floods! This configuration also makes it difficult to install most backup pumps! All three models of HYDROPUMP connect to the main pump discharge pipe 3 - 4 feet above that turbulent point. This leaves plenty of room to install the main check valve at a point where the water is running more smoothly through the pipe and causing no damage to the check valve. It also means the pump is much easier to install, usually without removing the main pump to do it. All your connections are made above the floor, not down inside the sump.

Installation of all these models is a breeze and we include everything you should need except the battery. We recommend a standard size, 12 Volt Marine Deep Cycle Battery, Sealed Lead-Acid Battery, AGM Battery, or Gel Battery available locally throughout the country. We also sell AGM and Gel Batteries on our purchasing page. We include a high-impact plastic battery case #27 that protects the battery and the terminals. The case is designed to give the battery plenty of ventilation.

 

HYDROPUMP DH900 and DH1800 each comes complete with its own mounting bracket that makes it possible to set the pump easily at the desired height in the sump at the high water level. The pump typically stays above the water line and usually only gets wet when the water rises above normal. Its job is to keep the floor dry until the problem is resolved. The included stainless steel bracket hangs the pump against the wall of the sump, out of the way and at the desired height. If your sump is of standard size, say 15" - 20" across at floor level and 18 - 30" deep, one of the DH models will most likely fit just fine.

HYDROPUMP RH1400 is specifically designed for use in smaller, more confined sumps where placing the pump down in the sump is just about impossible. The RH1400 sits on the floor and uses a suction pipe that goes nearly all the way to the bottom of the sump pit. This assures an effective removal of water from the pit and the drain tiles to the extent of the float that controls it. The pump is always full of water because it must be kept primed at all times by the water flow from the main sump pump running more often than the backup sump pump.
