Q: Hello-We are building a new house with a small footprint. As such our second bathroom is in our basement. We would like to install a pump to remove sewage and shower water. What would you recomend? The bathroom will mainly be used for occasional guests. Laundry water will be independent. Does it vent with a standard vent stack, we certainly dont want a stinky basement. HELP

A: The Superior Pump model 93015 1/2 HP Cast Iron Sewage Pump System or Bur-Cam 4/10 HP Heavy Duty Cast Iron Sewage Pump System, model 400419T would be an ideal set-up for your application. It comes with everything you need with the exception of the PVC discharge and venting pipe. For safe and secure operation for venting, it is required to use schedule 40 pipe or heavier. This is required by the UPC (Universal Plumbing Code) and is for your safety. Venting should be through the roof of the building unless otherwise noted by you local or state codes.

Q: I currently have a sump pump in my basement with 2" discharge. I would like to add a bathroom in the basement that is below the street level sewer line by about 5-6 feet. I have a sump pump well that is below floor level by about 2 feet. What would work to accomplish this need. Would a lift ginder/lift pump work in place of the sump for the clothes washer and would it pump out the sewage effectively?

A: Your sump pump will always work independantly of your sewage pump and the Superior model 93015 Cast Iron Sewage Pump system or the Little Giant Model WCSS50 - 4/10 HP Cast Iron Sewage Pump System would be a good choice to handle the new bathroom. Ideally, something similiar to a Wayne Model SYLT30 - 1/3 HP Pre-Assembled Laundry Tray System would also be installed to handle the laundry water as standard sump and sewage pumps are not designed to handle the chemicals associated with laundry applications and will void your warranty for sump and sewage pumps. That being said, if you are against installing a seperate laundry system, the sewage system would tolerate the laundry application better than the sump pump.
