Before you call a plumber, do yourself a "solid" and read this guide first to learn how to install a replacement pump-up ejector system yourself. Important:make sure the check valve is oriented the proper way, allowing water to pass upward toward the main sewer line, and not allow water to travel back down toward the pump.Most check valves have an arrow indicating the correct direction of the water flow.

Use a coupling to make future check valve replacements even easier.

Without a weep hole, the water below a check valve drains back into the pit and compresses the air left in the pipe, which could prevent water from leaving the pump the next time it tries to empty the basin. Cut the pipe on a raised surface using a saw, and use a safety knife as a deburring tool to smooth out the edges of the cut.. Make sure the top of the wires still sit below the height of the electrical outlet to prevent water from traveling down the wire and into the outlet. Remember, unless your basin cover separates in the center, you'll need to disconnect the discharge pipe from the check valve again in order to fit the sewage basin cover on again. If applicable, the seal will need to be cut by using a boxcutter or a similar tool, and the bolts will need to be removed using the appropriate tools as well. .TK%aNB (tYWj#t:V. If you don't want to deal with backflow in the future, this is the time to install a ball valve above where you are installing the check valve, as close to it as possible. Ejector pits have covers that are bolted down and are often sealed with silicone to prevent odor or sewage gas leaks from being released into the air. Lastly, understand that sewage ejector pumps are not sump pumps, and they cannot be used interchangeably. {"storeName":"Sump Pumps
