2. Sump Pit

&hgjhjhgj&Troubleshootin
A sump pit not less than 14" in diameter is recommended. A larger diameter pit is preferred as it allows for longer pump cycling
gTroubleshooting&Troubl
and reduced switch cycling. The minimum depth of the pit should be 18".
The bottom of the pit should be a solid level of bricks or concrete. DO NOT place the pump directly on earth, gravel or debr is
eshooting&Troubleshootin
since this can cause excessive wear of the impeller and possible jamming. "The Brick" (sold by Liberty Pumps as part #
4445000) is a pre-molded stable platform designed to fit your submersible pump. It raises the pump 2.75" off the bottom of the
g&Troubleshooting&Trou
pit, reducing the potential for jamming from rocks and debris. Contact your local distributor to order. Remove all debris from the
bottom of the sump pit before installation of the pump. A sump pit cover is suggested for safety and to prevent foreign objects
from entering the pit.
