I have the bucket cemented into the slab in the basement with a pedestal pump and float switch.
It's been running non-stop for 5 hours now.
Not switching on and off.
Running full blast.
36 gallons per minute.
Just keeping my fingers crossed.
The Rain Slowed down, and narry a drop, thankfully.
No feesh today.. it's momma's day, made her a big breakfast, and know just waiting for the afternoon agenda......
I'm doing both... 3 fish out the back door, in between downpours and monitoring the sumps... one of the benefits of living on the water, I get lots of sanity breaks
had pioneer basement come in a few years ago and since then no aqua in da hizouse....lets just hop the pump holds up as she is pumping every ~40 seconds.....YIKES!!!
Pioneer gaurantees no aqua in the basement after their work so lets hope I do not need to call them.
Got the backup ready to go and the backup to the backup as well.
I am going to stream video of the pump and basement from my PC to my work PC (yes I am a loser) so if the pump alarm starts a blowin I can come home and activate the backup.
