MONTHLY MANDATORY CHECK-UP:
1. Inspect the pump and the sump for any
obvious condition that necessitates cleaning,
correction, adjustement or repair.
2. Clear the sump and the surroundings of
any paper, leaves or other debris that might
clog the input openings. Remove anything
that might float into the sump.
3. Assure that the pump is secure and
vertical for proper operation.
4. Assure that there is adequate clearance
from any combustible materials or structure.
Stored materials must be kept away from the
pump. Shelves or cabinet structures must
not be in close proximity over the pump.
5. Assure that the motor is securely plugged
into a proper GFCI electrical outlet.
6. Test the ‘GFCI’ outlet by pressing its test
switch. This should prove that the outlet is
energized and will trip off to protect against a
ground fault. Be sure to reset the ‘GFCI’ by
pressing its reset switch.
7. Lift the float to prove that the pump will
start when required. (Step 8 below will test
submersible pumps with enclosed floats).
8. Put a pail of water (8 liters) in the sump to
prove that any check valve present will
permit effluent to flow.
9. Observe that the plumbing can carry the
effluent safely out of the residence.
