Considering many here are trying to include their sump pump in their HA setup, I figured I would post my installation questions here B)
My house is 2 years old, and the basement hasn't been finished yet. There is a sump pit already with 2 large drains, just no pump. What should I look for in a pump? The area I am in isn't really prone to flooding, and after the typical Central NY winters, it still doesn't flood, but you never know. I am more concerned about the house flooding from the inside due to a water softener/washer machine/septic acting up. Do I need to buy an installation kit/mounting hardware? I looked at them at Home Depot, but I saw several kinds, low end, all the way up to battery backed pumps. Are there certain kinds which are easier to monitor with i.e. an Ocelot? Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks!
