Guess I need to find one of those placards I've seen in some restrooms at restaurants and such. Can't see myself making an announcement every time we have guests, which is quite often.

Now that...

Mark,

I did drill the hole, but the instructions said to drill a 3/16 hole.

Don't see how you can forget that hole. It's printed on almost every flap of the box and several places in the...

It's all done and everything works. Having the check valve just outside the tank really makes a difference. Hardest part of the whole job was to get the rubber seal installed in the lid.

I am...

I realize you mentioned that above, but I wasn't sure if you were using Zoeller's valve, which may (with my luck) be slightly different, enough to not cause a problem. That's why I was more specific...

I just installed the Zoeller pump and in the instructions it shows the check valve in the vertical position. All other literature I've seen on other pumps say not to do this because debris can rest...

Guess I'll have to see what it does over time. :rolleyes:

Thanks Tom.

Old Harley Joe,

I am NOT an expert, but I had the same unlevel floor in our basement. I tried to get the tile level for the toilet, but it still had a small rock before I put the wax ring on and...

Thanks, Milo. Didn't see your post while I was posting my last one. Couldn't find one locally, but for two day shipping it was only $25, but no sales tax.

Hopefully, I ordered the right one. :D

Thanks Mark. I just ordered Zoeller M267 Waste-Mate Cast Iron 115 Volt 0.5 HP Sewage & Dewatering Submersible Pump Automatic

Now I've got to see if I can take back the Ridgid.

Dave

Sensor isn't adjustable.

Wonder if I should change the pump to a different brand before the crap flows. Any suggestions if I go that route?


Another thought. I've been doing some more...

BTW, it's a RIDGID. I misspelled it earlier.

DUH!

Milo,

The level sensor isn't a float. It's a capacitive plate mounted on the side of the pump. Completely electronic. Measured the top plate, and those dimensions look correct.

The pump...

Thanks, guys. I don't know the exact size of the tank. It was installed by the dealer. But I think it's just like the ones sold at Home Depot, about 4' deep and about 2.5' in diameter.

BTW, my...

The pump is sitting on the bottom of the tank (put it there myself). It's a Rigid SSEP500 that has an electronic level sensor. And yes, I have the manual for it. The pump is brand new and I...

Just installed a bathroom and laundry room in the basement, that was already to an in-ground tank. I have a Rigid waste pump in the waste tank. The outlet pipe goes up about 6 feet then bends to a...
