Q: Would this pump be suitable for a 12' x 12' basement? by Cody Dix from Ohio on January 10, 2011
A: The interior dimensions of a basement aren't a major factor in sizing a sump pump correctly.
Monitoring your current pump during normal operation and during a storm can give you a better idea of what size pump you would need. by Jim, Product Expert
Q: What is the lowest level of water that would switch the pump on? by Keith from Pennsylvania on January 02, 2011
A: Hello Keith, I apologize for the delay in answering your question.
The turn off level is 4"
The lowest water level to turn the pump on is 5" (±1/2")
The turn on is adjustable and not set at the factory. It's controlled by the grommet on the float rod that the user need to put on. The normal on range is about 12".
