🔒 Wayne WSS30VN: Upgraded Combination 1/2 HP and 12-Volt Battery Back Up System in Black - Efficient Solution for Added Security and Reliability Review

After contacting Wayne they admitted that the pump I received was defective. Wayne immediately sent me a replacement that works perfectly. I'm only giving them 4 stars because of the inconvenience of having to remove and install a second pump because a faulty pump was sent. __________________________________________________________________________________________ The float is defective! Very, very annoyed! Bought this pump to replace an aging battery backed up Zoller. So here's the thing, the…

My wife and I were having problems with basement flooding when the stairwell drain pump failed. Recently we were out of town and it was raining heavily. The drain pump must have blown a switch causing it to stop and our newly renovated basement had nearly 6 inches of water. I swore to myself I'd never have to deal with that again! Although our pump was serviceable and worked well, there was nothing to protect us if the power went out, so I went to the store and bought the largest basement…

Our Wayne WSS30V was installed in mid-May 2018 and recently found the unit was running constantly and not pumping out the water in our sump. The water had a very strong oily odor and was brown/oily. I called support and they said it sounded like the seal was broken and told me to remove the unit, take a picture of it, answer the questionnaire, attach a copy of the receipt and email it back to order get the return label. . As soon as I send the failed motor back, they will determine why it…

My house is only two years old but the original drain pump has already failed. The builder installed a Victory VIC92260 ¼ HP pump. This is a private label sold exclusively by a local supplier. The built in float didn't work and I caught it working in a dry well. It still had a year of warranty left but I decided it was time to upgrade it. I'm traveling out of town and wanted a more reliable pump and backup battery. After a long research, the choice fell on either Wayne or Zoller. The deciding…

I hooked up this unit today and made some observations which I hope will help some of you: For this unit I have a large Vmaxtanks 120ah AGM Marine battery with me ordered this one and this one fits perfectly in the plastic case that comes with the pump. The box measures 14"L x 9"H x 9"D. Wiring is very easy. There are 3 very different connectors that you cannot miswire. A combination of two pumps does not require two. No big deal. I connected a 12v backup pump to a new 120v Wayne 3/4hp primary…

Packaging: The pump was well packed with cardboard pads to prevent wobbling and bruising. It's always nice to see an item well packaged as the outer box is always destroyed by shipping companies. Size: I measured the "bottom" of my sump as the top was slightly larger and I only had about 14 inches to work with. The instructions on Wayne's website state that a minimum of 15 inches is required. I was a little worried but I can confirm it fits the bottom of my sink. It's pretty tight though. The…
