Great product, great service!

Ordered for radon protection system. My setup is a little different than most people in that I didn't have a fan connected to the sump. So I had to fire my discharge straight up. The system is not really designed for that. I called the company to see what I could do and they have some sealed flanges just for that situation. When I further explained that I needed them for the weekend (I called on Thursday), they were already on my doorstep the next morning! Absolutely amazing service from…

Almost indestructible.

The thing is built like a tank! I wish I had received it sooner without even knowing about my radon problem which is why I bought it. Definitely a bit of plumbing and it will prevent you from having easy or quick access to your pump when needed, but if you're trying to lower radon levels or just want to keep your sump safe from kids, pets or the like is this case is great. Radon levels in the mines have halved since installation. I read some reviews about threading issues. I only installed half

Well designed - worth every penny

Very well designed. At first glance, you might be wondering why you're spending $100 on a drain pump cover, but this thing is well designed and well thought out. I use this as part of a radon protection system. Don't skimp on fittings and various pipe gaskets/flanges. They even included a drilling template for the sump pump outlet pipe. A typical design is the lateral entry of the outlet pipe and the entry of the radon outlet from above. The cables enter from the top (although mine enter from…

It fills the hole in the water pumps, parts and accessories

Arrived quickly and in good condition. I have to admit that ordering from Amazon was cheaper than ordering from Homedepot. I did it in two days, although I wasn't in any particular hurry. I bought this to install as a pit cover over my sump. It doesn't have an actual lid, just a piece of 3/4" thick machined plywood with a piping duct cut out. The plumbing to close the pit was intended to reduce moisture and control pest access to open water. I tested my radon and it was well below the limit but

Great manhole cover

Great manhole cover! I'm glad I ordered it as it was originally on the fence. It's very well constructed in terms of material, so now I understand why it costs so much. My sump was originally covered with a piece of wood sealed with silicone caulk, so I didn't have access to check the pump. At one point my pump failed and I had a small flood in my basement. Luckily I was able to catch it before it spread too far and figured I needed a way to access and test the pumps and vent the radon. This…

Pros
  • Robust construction
Cons
  • Concealable

Great concept, difficult to install Failed

Purchased to replace an existing oil pan cover with a radon reducing cover. The reviews on it were very good, so I was very optimistic. The product is very durable, goes very well with the existing sump. My concrete floor was level and the base of the product fitted well. The basis for this is available as a radon reduction solution. where it failed is in the fragile and complex connection hardware for attaching (and allowing re-opening and re-closing) the lids to the base. The problems are…

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
