“When I lose power to the house, it usually happens because of flooding in the area. Though my battery backup system was fine for a short period of time, and I if I would have time to get my generator running for long outages, this system removes those limitations. This will need no human intervention even when we are without power for an extended period of time.The system works as advertised. I would not use this as my primary pump because it uses public water to run, but it's an excellent choice as a backup.I still have to cover the pit because I have a radon issue, so you can ignore the large white pipe.I added a water hammer arrestor and a fill valve so I can test it, so you can also ignore all the blue pipes too.There is a one-way check valve for the water supply. That check valve is not necessary per the instructions.There is a discharge check valve on the primary pump, but per the instructions you do not install a check valve on the JetPump because it's unnecessary and would reduce performance. Re performance, I used 45 degree turns rather than 90 degree turns. If you don't have space, I don't anticipate using 90 degree turns would be an issue, it would simply be less efficient. I had the room, so I opted to maximize efficiency.The only expected negative is that it will require more physical space in the pit, and I will have to work on how best to seal the pit because of the radon exhaust pipe. Since I have the room, I will simply be building a box around the entire thing and using roofing rubber grommets around the PVC pipes to help make a good seal.Again, excellent Backup System, I would still use a traditional sump pump for the primary system.”
“Good unit, priced well and it will save wherever your installing it basement or wherever , I’ve installed over 12 units this year , purchased most from plumbingsupplyandmore”
“I bought this pump 8 years ago in 2016 as a backup and other than testing it once a month, it has never been needed. I was away on a trip last week and my home lost power for 24 hours during a bad storm with heavy rains. My primary sump would have been working overtime during this rain and I was afraid that the liberty jet pump may not have been able to keep up. Fortunately, my kids live nearby and were able to check on my house and they said that it was pumping perfectly and my basement was dry. I’m beyond pleased with this purchase as it has saved me from a basement knee deep in water and lot of damage. Curious to see the effect on my water bill, but it will certainly be well worth it. I like the fact that it has no battery, simple, and other than testing it once a month, it’s always ready to go. Totally recommend!”
“Product is great after we went to the store to replace part of it that was broken. I have still not heard back from the company so customer service is terrible.”
