Review on 💧 WAYNE CDU800 0.5 HP Submersible Sump Pump Made of Cast Iron and Steel - Integrated Vertical Float Switch by James Chandran

So far, so good! I had a 2 year old cheap custom contractor plastic block that came with my house and it worked 3 cycles, didn't work for a couple, worked 3. It's in a house surrounded by wetlands so this baby is pumping in the Spring about every 45 seconds. Luckily I had a backup watchdog otherwise I would have had a flooded basement. The first thing that struck me is that this block is VERY well put together. Good cast iron base and much heavier than the block I replaced. Assembly is NOT required, just take it out of the box and you're done. Started the first time and very quiet. It has worked for 48 hours without an alarm and I expect it to last for many years.
