Is there a recommended setting for my pedestal sump's float switch?
I seem to recall a while back someone posting that it didn't matter...
but a friend had mentioned setting it so that it is activated when the water level is just below where the drain tiles enter the crock, and off when it sinks to an inch or two on the bottom.
Someone else mentioned that it should switch on when the level is about 3/4 full and that it should go off when the level is water in the bottom of the tile, supposedly for "radon" reasons.
We live in a house with a full basement in a northern (freezing winters) climate.
Thanks.
