My home is 7 yrs old and has two pump basins in the basement. One has a typical sump pump and is used to collect and eject outside ground water away from the foundation through a drain tile "leaching" system. The second is a sealed basin containing an ejection pump that is fed by the basement floor drain and ejected to the house sewer line. I want to install a basement bathroom and so I need to have an ejection pump basin large enough for a sewage ejection pump set-up. My question is (finally you say) can I remove the existing ejection pump and basin, install the larger sewage basin with solid waste ejection pump and then plumb the toilet, the sink, and also the floor drain to this basin? I was told that probably the existing basin is currently too small, so that is why I will replace it. I am trying to avoid installing a third basin in the basement if possible and the new bathroom fixtures will be located close to the existing ejection pump basin. This floor drain is used to collect condensate from the central air unit in the summer and the overflow water used in the powered humidification system in the winter.
