    Sump Pump Basin

    Its a submersible Pump with vertical float, so i want to get it as vertical as i can so it never gets stuck and i am going to be installing a battery backup sump that all needs to be somewhat level. Correct me if im wrong, but the amount of water the pump moves would be the same after the...

    Sump Pump Basin

    I am using a Sump Pump. Thats why i am trying to get the bottom of the basin to be nice and flat instead of having the sump pump sitting wierd. I think the ground water is pushing up on the bottom, so thats why i wonder if drilling some holes will help, it would also remove more water that...

    Sump Pump Basin

    After reading a number of different posts... I have read that people drill a number of small holes at the base of the sump basin to allow water to enter and not "fill up" around the basin before it pours in through the weeping tile hole. Is this common practice? that would probably solve...

    Sump Pump Basin

    Thanks for the reponse, but the one currently installed is a pre-fab basin. Looks like a standard one seen in most stores...So installing a new one would probably bring the same problem with it.

    Sump Pump Basin

    Hello all, I noticed the other day that the bottom of the sump basin had "bubbled up" and it looked like an air pocket under the base. I tried to push it back down into place and water would come into the pit through one of the holes (side question, the water comes out of the hole around the...

    Humidifier Bypass

    Perfect, thanks for the quick help. Just curious, is the reason it has to be above the coil (if it was a heat pump) is just because of the heat needs to pass throught the humidifier? Since mine is a gas furnace the AC coil is just used in the summer and its only important that the bypass...

    Humidifier Bypass

    It is a natural gas furance (about 5 years old). So does that matter is the bypass is above or below the A-coil?

    Humidifier Bypass

    Hello, Im in the process of installing a new humidifier, however, due to the way the furnace was installed the Furnace output duct has the A-coil mounted about 14" above the furnace top and this leaves very little room above the A-coil and the ceiling. 1) Can I mount the bypass duct below...
