Q: 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?
by Mark from New Jersey on February 09, 2011

A: 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.

Definitely A Step Up.

I installed this pump as a replacement for a seven plus year old unit. The install was so simple, connect the pipe, put it in the pit and power it on. The level is preset to save the constant adjustment tinkering.

This pump met my needs as a salt water resistant pump as the water softener drains the flush water into the pit as well.

The performance has been stellar thus far, in comparison to the old unit, it ran about every two minutes during the heaviest downpours. The old pump ran... more

Pros: Quiet, Easy To Use, Fast, I'd Buy It Again

Cons: Expensive

Works Good

Installed this pump about 2 months ago and is working great. Really hauls the water and is extremely quieter than my old pump. So far I am more than satisfied with it.

Nice Pump

Pump replaces a pedestal unit that used more current and pumped less water. This new unit is very quiet and really moves a lot of water. Very fast delivery.

So Far So Good

Just installed my Storm Pro sump this weekend. So far no issues. Extremely quiet and pumps out very fast. I believe this is going to end up being a very good purchase.
