Is it possible to link the Intellidrive system with a home automation system like Alexia, Google, etc, to shut it down if a leak is detected? I know the Intellidrive offers a cabled moisture sensor, but I hoped to provide more coverage to my house. When I was on city water, my home...

I want to install just cold running water in the garage at my snowmobile cabin. I only use the cabin on weekends so I need a way to prevent freezing during the week. I looked at installing a frost free hydrant but installing it in the garage with a concrete floor is a no go. The well pit is...

I am trying to get my pump to cycle less and I think part of the problem is that the pump has a built in vertical float switch that limits the range I can set. The float switch uses a seperate cord so I tried using a teathered float but the sump diameter is too small to give me the range I...

I have a FlowTec Model FPSC4550A that recently went out and I went to Home Depot where they exchanged it with a new one. (This was my 2nd free replacement) The 1st one lasted 3 Years and the 2nd one about 2 years. Home depot says they are not supposed to swap the units at the stores anymore...
