Basepump HB1000-PRO Premium High-Volume Water Powered Backup Sump Pump — Open-Box, 37% Off

High-Volume Backup Protection: Delivers up to 22 gallons per minute under rated operating conditions to help protect basements from flooding. This automatic water powered backup sump pump activates when your primary pump cannot keep up or loses power.

Runs Without Electricity: Powered entirely by municipal water pressure, the system requires no electricity, batteries, charger, or generator. Water flows through an internal venturi to create suction, allowing dependable operation during power outages as long as municipal water service remains available.

Easy Installation Options: Includes plumbing components and detailed installation instructions for straightforward setup. Many homeowners can install the system themselves, although local plumbing codes may require a licensed plumber. The ceiling-mounted design is compatible with many sealed radon cover installations when installed according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Reliable and Quiet Operation: Designed with minimal moving parts for dependable, low-maintenance performance and quiet operation. The included 85 dB high water alarm provides an audible alert if water rises above normal levels, helping provide early warning before flooding occurs.

Helpful Installation Tips: Verify adequate municipal water pressure before installation and follow the included instructions carefully. A dedicated discharge line is generally recommended unless local plumbing codes approve another configuration. Avoid restricting water flow or using undersized plumbing to help achieve the best pumping performance.

Basepump HB1000-PRO, high volume pump, is uniquely designed as an EASY-TO-INSTALL, DO-IT-YOURSELF backup sump pump with included BUILT-IN Brass Dual Check Valve back-flow prevention device, including battery powered high water ALARM. The pump is mounted on the ceiling, keeping it clean and dry until needed. Uses water pressure to pump water! This design meets most local plumbing codes for back-flow prevention, includes many of the installation parts, and means greater efficiency and higher pumping rates. Connects directly to your home water supply using the INCLUDED push-fit pipe fittings, similar to "Shark-Bite Brand," for copper, PEX, or CPVC piping. Suitable for use with Radon covers. As we are asked many times, the difference between this model and the RB750 is that this model comes with a brass dual check valve backflow preventer, brass shutoff valve, tee, and adapter so it is very easy to install right out of the box. The standard HB1000 does not have these extras. For both models, you must supply the water pipe and 1-1/4" PVC pipe for the suction from the bottom of the sump to the ceiling. Make sure you can fill a 5 gallon bucket at your outside hose spigot, without the hose, in less than 30 seconds for this pump so you know you have enough water flow to feed it properly. When testing your water supply, if you have a water softener, filter, or frost-proof spigot, the test will be inaccurate. Keep in mind that a basic installation is about a three hour job in most cases so consider that accordingly when obtaining bids from contractors.
