Jim-
Basement has a high water table so I need a switch that activates the sump pump about 15.5 inches from the base of the basin. Looked at the Stormpro with the vertical swith that attaches to the discharge pipe or the Ion switch that may be digitally adjusted to determine when the switch turns on the pump. Would either of these work if I need the 15.5 inches?
Also, I have a 1.5 inch discharge pipe, if I would purchase the larger hosrsepower Stormpro with a 2 inch discharge, and use a reducer, would this hinder the performance of the 1/2 horse model?
Thanks for any advise you can give me.

Answer
Unless you're using the Ion Genesis controller, which you can increase the pumping differential, the standard pump differential is still 6". There might be a way to adjust the mechanical version to get a few more inches out of it, but that's not suggested by the manufacturer.
Reducing the output would create more pressure and lower the output of the pump. If you do by the higher horsepower, I'd suggest upgrading to a the 2" discharge.

How does the sump pump connect to the independent float switch, Does the pump plug into the switch and the switch plugs into the power?
Mark

Answer
Yes, most external float switches utilize this design. It's consider a "Piggyback" style plug. Very similar to how sets of Christmas lights connect to each other.

Would this pump be suitable for a 12' x 12' basement?
Cody Dix

Answer
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.
