💧 Reliable Liberty Pumps SJ10 SumpJet Water Powered Back-Up Pump for Effective Backup - Gray Review

I installed these on a property that had a history of flooding which occurred when Tropical Storm Isaias hit and cut power for over 24 hours. The Isaias tornado caused extensive damage to buildings/trees, making it almost impossible to get to the property quickly and troubleshoot. A few years ago I already had a basement drainage system installed that prevents flooding when air conditioning is in place. The sump jet is probably 3ft deep so it could easily rise above the AC powered sump so it…

I purchased this pump as a backup electric drain pump for my large (7 foot deep) French drain. An electric pump plugged into a GFI plug and the power cut out when I wasn't home, but there was no plug so the pump wouldn't drain the water it collected. The basement was leaking (from an area we didn't have French drainage at the time. I was building an apartment in this basement so I had to make sure I had a relapse. I researched battery operated drain pumps but they didn't have a very good one…

I recently replaced my obsolete Basement Watchdog backup drain pump with this Liberty Pump water pump. I was very tired and annoyed by the alarm calls from the cellar guard about battery problems (which mostly happen in the middle of the night) and about $180 worth of batteries gobbled up in less than 2 years. I hired a local plumber to do the installation and was happy to hear that he was satisfied with the overall quality of Liberty Pumps products. If you are good with plumbing, you can…

Will never let you down. We go on vacation and inevitably see what horrible weather we're having at home (or have been to work in bad weather) and have to hope and pray that our finished basement will be dry when we get home! On this recent vacation, we vacationed in North Carolina just before the remnants of a Texas hurricane hit our hometown. We could only hope for the best but honestly it's stress I don't need when I'm out of town! We took the plunge and hired a professional to install it…

I live in a flooded area and even during relatively dry periods my drain pump discharges water several times a day. I spent the powerless parts of Hurricane Irene sleeping in the basement, praying the generator wouldn't fail and groundwater wouldn't flood the basement. As Hurricane Sandy approached I did what a lot of other people seem to have done and ordered it on Friday and paid extra for a day of shipping. I spent about $70 on all the Sharkbite fittings, pipe and ball valve I would need for

Ordered through Revain. The installation instructions were easy to understand. Installed as a home build. Due to its unique design, it took some work. Pros: Clean and simple design. Ease of installation. The instructions are simple and easy to follow. Due to the location of my plumbing and exhaust pipes, I had to opt for a wood-based installation. Cons: 1. Drain pipe design: It is a glued connection as opposed to a drain pump where you have a threaded connection. It's ok, it's just that you'll…

GPM kept me from buying one of these for years. It wasn't until my main sump broke down during a thunderstorm that I quickly realized that manual skimming with a bucket in a situation like this couldn't even remotely match a pump failure. A battery powered backup pump kit from a well known hardware store which was great as it came with a 3 year guarantee! But I soon realized after only a year and 3 months that the backup pump was not the same as the main pump and the pump mount is very flush…
