StormPro SHW50A-11 - 1/2 HP High-Output Sewage Pump (2") w/ ION Digital Level Control

Bought this pump after my Barracuda rated for 4800 GPH at 0' lift crapped out 3 months after I got it to replace one that failed. Severe storms in the Chicago area flooded parts of my neighborhood, and I had the misfortune of finding out the drainage problems my new property has. After 3 pumps in the pit were insufficient, I found this one. Easily passes debris that makes it through the drain grate. Have never seen a more beautiful site than the torrent of water this thing produces. Ion switch works well, but insufficient instructions. After calling the help line, found out that "Ion 10" means that the pump cycles after water is 10" above switch, so I had to dig my sump pit deeper... guy at the local plumbing store gave me the sewage model (should have given me the sump model w/6" switch). Curses on the crappy plumbers from the home warranty company who installed the Barracuda even after I offered to pay the difference to get the best pump possible.
