Q: Hi, Can i reduce output 2 inch to 1.5 inch whit this sump pump zoeller m267 and do you you ship to Quebec Canada by Anonymous on October 21, 2011
A: Since this pump is capable of passing up to 2" spherical solids, I would not recommend it and unfortunately, we only ship within the continental United States. by Jim, Product Expert
Q: is there a warranty that comes with this product? type and length of warranty by Carol Porcho from California on October 13, 2011
A: Yes, the Zoeller model M267 comes with a 1 year Limited Warranty. by Jim, Product Expert
Q: is this the same thing as a grinder pump by Rainey from Missouri on September 29, 2011
A: NO. A grinder pump will actually contain blades to "grind" any solids that would get into the suction inlet. A sewage pump will "pass" up to 2 inch "solids" in a sewage application. by Jim, Product Expert
Q: Hi Jim, We are looking for sewage pump for basement bathroom; Zoeller M267 looks the best one available. However, is there any kind of system come with pump which will alert just in case pump shut down or something got stuck/wrong with it? Please suggest... by Mehul Patel from North Carolina on July 16, 2011
A: There are no pumps that I'm aware of with that capability, however, you might check out the Superior Pump Universal Sump & Sewage Pump Alarm System, Model 92060. This alarm system would alert you in the event your liquid level was higher than normal. Another option might be the Protected Home Basic Alarm Dialer, Model BD-5000 and the Protected Home WaterSiren Plus, model WS-04. This system would sound an alarm and automatically dial a phone number to alert you as well when the water level reaches a higher than normal level. by Jim, Product Expert
Q: Hi Jim: I'm looking at using the M267 to move the water from a basin that will catch flow from 5 gutter downspouts. What is the duty cycle rating? When it rains, I expect this pump will run continuously and/or have lots of starts. by Ben from Tennessee on April 16, 2011
A: Kind of a tough question to answer because the Duty Cycle is based on a number of variables. Basically the standard stop/starts per hour recommended for the M267 are 6-10.
To calculate a more specific Duty cycle you would need to know the fixture count & GPM’s feeding into the basin, the basin capacity along with the collected volume capacity within the basin, also the discharge length and head, taking into account peak Vs. non-peak usage (yes it gets complicated).
There are mathematical equations to figure out a close Duty Cycle predicated on the info I just listed above however, depending on peak, non-peak or moderate demand the Duty Cycle will fluctuate.

Q: HI Jim, Can you tell me if I can use the Klunkless check valve with a sewage pump? by Ruben from Illinois on January 07, 2011
A: This check valve can't be used with sewage pumps. The maximum size pipe this valve can handle is 1-1/2".
Sewage pumps have a 2" or larger discharge. by Jim, Product Expert
Q: HI Jim,
I need to install a sewage pump in my basement and I would like to know does the pump need a dedicated electrical line and does it need to be 20 amp or 15 amp? by Steve Smith from Pennsylvania on December 31, 2010
A: For any sump or sewage pump, a dedicated circuit with a GFCI outlet is the safest way to install.
This pump is rated @ 10.4 Amps, so a 15 amp breaker would be sufficient. by Jim, Product Expert

Jim's Recommendation
Model M267 from Zoeller gets our “Best” sewage pump recommendation.
This pump is a beast and weighs in at almost 50 pounds. Zoeller builds high quality pumps and this pump is true to form.
The M267 is heavy duty from top to bottom. Cast iron construction for the vital parts, such as motor housing, base and volute are essential if you want a pump to last for a long time.
Combine that with stainless steel fasteners and components, and it’s clear that Zoeller knows how to build pumps.
The non-clogging vortex impeller allows this pump to pass solids with ease. With an oil-filled, thermally protected motor, this pump can handle almost anything.
Zoeller gives this pump a powder coated epoxy finish that prevents corrosion. This is extremely beneficial in conditions such as a sewage basin.
All of their pumps are pressure tested before they leave the factory. It provides a piece of mind that they stand behind their pumps.
We give Zoeller model M267 our “Best” recommendation and it lives up to the hype.

I knew the Zoeller pump to be among the best. So I was replacing a Zoeller I had for many years, with the M-267. Installation was a breeze, everything worked just as it should. I no longer have any worries about the pump not coming on. The older pump had a switch problem, and with many years in service, I felt it best to replace the pump. Am very satisfied. I got the free shipping, and Sump Pumps Direct shipped to me in a timely manner. I rate them very highly.

Still Strong After 25 Years!
When I was building my house, I asked around about sewage pumps. Once it went into use, I didn't want to have to go back in and work on it any time soon. I'm an electrician, not a plumber, and my aversion to sewage smell is one of the reasons I didn't choose plumbing for a profession.
A plumber friend of mine, who helped get me started on installing the plumbing in my house, recommended the Zoeller, so I installed it while the house was still being built, back in 1986. I also installed a toilet in the basement for myself and the crew to use during construction, better than a porta-potty.
In that time there was only one problem, the float lost its buoyancy. I removed the float and installed an aftermarket float and it has worked like a charm since. The pump has taken the load of a full bathroom (toilet, shower and sink), a slop sink and a floor drain, which has seen a couple of floods over the years. It doesn't get everyday use but it always works.
The cover to the ejector pit has rusted out and has to be replaced. Now we are thinking maybe it's time to replace the pump too, even though the pump shows no sign of giving out.
I would never buy another brand.

Awesome Pump
I own 2 of these pumps and they have been to the test numerous times, under extreme flooding conditions and I can honestly tell you that I am quite impressed with this pump's durability. Very reliable pump and is a MUST for anyone living in a flood prone area.

Sewage BackUp
My HydroMatic had a float failure, since it was over ten years old. I decided to change it out for a Zoeller, based on my previous experience with zoeller. Zoeller has always performed outstanding and the technical support has been excellent for me.

Great Service
Had the pump two days after ordering and it works great. Zoeller pump that I replaced was 33 years old and this one appears as well built. Great service just like when I bought my generator from your generator direct division.

Man Oh Man
We live where there's a lot of water in the spring and this year we are still flooded and our drain-field is under water.
We recieved our pump from you and installed it right away and plugged it in and it drained our septic tank so fast into a higher ground tank, we were shocked.
We have not had a worry since. Thank You

The pump was exactly what we needed and what we got. It is working perfectly.
The ordering was easy and it arrived quickly. Couldn't ask for better service.

Exact Replacement
I purchased the Zoeller M267 because it is an exact replacement for the septic pump that was in constant service for 13 years. There had been a problem with the float switch on the original which had been fixed a few years ago.
The original pump was still working. We had five feet of snow on the ground here last winter, and with another Northeast winter ahead I replaced the pump as a precaution.
The pump arrived promptly and in good perfect condition. Price and company response was good. The new pump is working well, and I have the old pump as a backup.
I can recommend this Zoeller pump and Sump Pumps Direct.

Pumping high water table
Well, it hasn’t rained since I installed the pump, so it’s hard to tell how well it works.
But, from what I can see on how it’s pumping the residual water from the high water table, it will do the job very nicely.
