I refinished my basement into a studio apartment with kitchen bath and laundry so I have an ejector pump. It has been 3 yrs now and I was wondering is there any kind of product to use to clean it or should it be cleaned?

Also the upstairs faucets "gurgle" when the ejector pump is running, is there something that can stop this noise?

Milo answered this best when he posted;" No matter what pump you use in your sewer ejector, you will have to maintain the pit. Our service includes removal of pump, cleaning pump with clean water, removing all liquids from pit, removing solids that accumulate on the bottom of the pit, and reinstalling pump. We than put hose inside the pit and let it run so pump goes through several cycles.
. We carry small pump with long discharge hose with us for this purpose
Thanks Milo. Tom
