“I'm just going to install this pump. Then I realized the 90 degree fitting with a check valve is missing. I need to install this right away. My question is can I just go straight up not using a 90 degree but straight up with a 1 1/4 pipe with a check valve on it”
“Nice compact unit. I wish its capacity were a bit larger, so it didn't have to cycle so often when doing laundry, but the bigger ones I found wouldn't have fit under the legs of the laundry sink. I needed one more connection to a 1.5 inch line than what was provided. I registered the product (I hope), but the serial number location given as an example on the SFA website did not match the one on my unit. Time will tell how long it will last.”
“The pump itself seems to be reasonably well built and works just fine for a basement utility sink. The only downside is that none of the advertised parts were included (and the box it came in was not even large enough to include the parts). Minus one star for the missing parts.On a positive note, the second top inlet can serve double duty to connect a combination air vent and overflow drain. You just need to cut a hole for whatever fitting you use to connect the vent/overflow line to the side wall of the sink.”
