As I stated in my comment the likely reason for down votes is no weep hole which will cause future problems of air lock. I've seen pumps burn up prematurely because of this and have made quite a lot of money on people doing these things themselves and not reading the instructions or watching videos where this isn't mentioned. It seems very simple to install a pump and it really is however a small mistake can be costly. If you are going to do this read the instructions I'm pretty sure this is covered in them.

@my2centz196

@@katie2920 if air gets trapped inside the pump it will continue to run non stop until the motor burns up. The weep hole allows the air a place to escape. A lot of pumps have them already drilled in the pump itself however they can get clogged up. It can get air locked even if the tank is full and after the pump has been working for years by a cyclone kinda like a tub it just sucks the air down. A check valve is installed so the pump doesn't continue to pump the same liquids over and over as the fall back down however without a weep hole when air gets trapped into the pump it can't escape.

A few things I would do differently: 1. install check valve & valve higher, gives more room when servicing pump (nothing better than hitting your head on a "crappy" pipe) 2. cut vent pipe at same height as check valve, and install a rubber coupling w/ hose clamps (for servicing) 3. ALWAYS use pressure PVC fittings on pump discharges, not standard DWV fittings 4. Use Zoeller or Gould pumps (I'm not a fan of the loose floats) Side note: I recommend silent check valves. Regardless, (I don't know if you mentioned it) ALWAYS use check valves with rubber couplings, never the compression type with the big plastic nuts...

7 yrs later this video keeps on giving. Thanks Zim!

One thing he didn't mention is a weep hole. I've said this a few times so far but if you install one read the instructions! Make sure to drill a 3/8" hole around 6"-8" up the discharge line. Usually somewhere around the waterline. Edit if you do not do this you risk expensive future problems including prematurely burning out your pump!

Excellent video. I wish working on these was ever this clean and non-gross. Scary to see this type of installation in a basement. We've had a pump outside our home for 20 years and have witnessed many failure modes. The worst problem is if the float switch fails to start the pump, which often and easily happens, then sewage will overflow the pit and flood the basement with sewage. Our 1st pump was 24 years old before it failed. It was a Goulds. The replacement was a Zoeller and lasted 3 years before its integrated float switch failed. Its amazing how these systems are not designed to be very reliable yet they consequences are very bad if they fail. There was no testing to see if the system was working at all. Would be an awful time to find out the pump is defective. Or find out that the float switch is getting hung up on a cable or pipe. Float switches only last a few years. The way you may find out its failed is when it overflows. Even if the float switch is still good, toilet paper can weight it down and prevent it from starting the pump. If or when the pump fails, replacing the pump will be an exciting challenge with all the solvent joined plumbing blocking access to the pit. Even if its just toilet paper preventing the float or needing to replace the float switch in 2-3 years, its hard to imagine how to do it with all the plumbing solvent joined in place. - There should be an easier way to remove plumbing attached to the pump, such as having a union on sewage and vent sides. - There should be an overflow alarm wired in to alert when level gets too high indicating pump or switch failure. - Mechanical float switches last only a few years best case. Electronic switches are available which are much more reliable. Look at Hydrocheck. Built in float switches are the worst. At least the Everbilt has an external switch so you can replace the switch without having to replace the pump.

I have both lift station on my septic field and basement sewage ejector pump. My experience with Zoeller is that despite their reputation, their pump only last 3 years. Yup, the float switch fails just about in 2 to 3 years. This is really bad design from Zoeller and I've learned this by using them for over 20 years. Do not use Zoeller pumps. You would think the Zoeller would notice this and fix it in their pump but they are not for whatever reason. As to this basement sewage ejection system goes, there must be a better design. When the pump fails sewage just floods the basement floor. Perhaps have an alarm system in place and design the pump to be placed outside the pit or something....

The tip about bypassing the float saved me hundreds in a service call. Many thanks

Thank you so much! It's 11:30 p.m. on a weekend and I thought I had a real plumbing emergency. The basement toilet stopped flushing and there was water mixed with other "juices" coming from the pit. As with all household emergencies, of course I went straight to KZread. When you mentioned that there may be separate plugs for the float switch and the pump, I immediately looked for that and found out that the pump still works and the switch is the issue. I think you may have saved me a few bucks. I still need to open everything up and check the float, but that's nothing. My pump is about 10 years old, so maybe I'll have to look into replacement, but at least your video helped me for now. But after viewing your video, I think replacing it myself may be possible. Thanks again!

Great, glad I could help. It's an easy job if you don't mind getting your hands dirty.

when I do these, I always drill a hole to insert the electrode for a water alarm and seal it with silicone. Just a precautionary measure. I also add a GFI with built in alarm (GFI is code in my area for any sump). So if the GFI gets tripped, it will set off a sound so you wont get a messy surprise.

Pretty good video but a few key points overlooked. First, discharge line fittings should be rated for pressure. This is code in a lot of areas. Secondly, if you use a check value, a air bleed hole should be created to prevent air lock. Also, make sure the voltage on your circuit matches the pump.

@fixitwithzim

Thanks for the comment. This pump doesn't call for an air bleed hole as the pump itself releases the vacuum. I believe the NEC calls for a dedicated 20 amp circuit for en ejector pump in which case my install has. I wasn't aware of using sch 40 on the pump discharge. Makes sense but then again the pump isn't putting that much pressure into the line. All the installs I've ever seen have used DWV PVC as I have used. Thanks again for the comment.

Hey, great job on the video. I appreciate the code references regarding the venting of fixtures. I was watching to gain knowledge on plumbing into existing venting. You are fortunate to have a stub.

It will be difficult to remove the lid without one.

Thanks for the comment. You could install a union on the vent pipe but I usually just lift the cover up the pipe and stash it up high while working.

A little trick I learned over the years is to drill a 1/4 " hole in the side of the discharge pipe about 6" blow the cover .... This will prevent the discharge from getting AIR BOUND ..... That problem drove me crazy years ago ....An old timer plumber showed me that trick & never had a problem since ....Great video !!!
