    Ejector pit
    Hello, selling my house and the "home inspector" suggested to the buyers that the ejector pit should be sealed, mine handles only laundry water and wash tub and is a standard type sump pit with a plastic lift of lid that has a slot half way through for the pipes. What would be the proper way, and or easy way of sealing that pit?

    Thanks in advance, jeff

    I should think that sealing up the slot would satisfy the inspector but if it doesn't click on;Backup Sump Pumps & Accessories Shipped Nationwide - Complete Basement Waterproofing Services for Chicagoland!
    And scroll down to pit covers and find pit covers from 18" to 36".
    Good luck, Tom
