We recommend that you install your pump in a clean location where there is adequate
room for servicing at a later date. Protection from freezing temperatures and good
ventilation should be considered as well, to provide the pump an environment for long life.
Do not use to pump gas or toxic fuels. This submersible sump pump is designed
to pump water only.
Friction losses in the discharge pipe must be taken into consideration when the horizontal
offset is greater than 50 feet. The discharge pipe should be increased from 1 1/2” to 2”.
This will reduce friction losses and allow the pump to give maximum performance.
More friction losses must also be taken into consideration when many elbows and fittings
are installed in the discharge line. Each elbows and fittings must be considered as 1 feet
of head.
The float switch of your pump has been pre-set at the factory and does not need any
adjustment.
Never run the pump dry. Damage to the seal may occur. Fill pump pit or sump basin
with water before turning on the power.
Assuming that you have a sump pit located in your basement floor... Your sump pit must
be constructed from concrete, brick, tile or more recently a sump basin made from plastic
and/or fiberglass. The minimum size of your sump pit must be 18” in diameter and no less
than 25” deep. When pit is ready, proceed to next step.

Please note before you proceed with the installation of this product that the manufacturer’s
guideline has to be respected. Failure to comply may void your warranty.
The following are minimum requirements in order to protect your residence from flooding. It is a small investment but it is
your personal responsibility to protect your home, family and valuables. Failure to comply with the following requirements
may also void your warranty:
• Two (2) pumps
have to be installed in the sump pit. The first pump as a primary pump and the second pump as the
backup unit.
• Burcam alarm system model 450454 has to be installed to advise you of any malfunctions.
• As sump pumps are electrically powered and activated so to prevent flooding, a Burcam battery powered back up pump
model 300403 has to be installed to evacuate the water.
Pump selection, proper and adequate installation are a must to comply with local by-laws and need to be adhered to.
