General safety

Electrically powered sump pumps normally give
many years of trouble-free service when correctly
installed, maintained, and used. However, unusual
circumstances (interruption of power to the pump,
dirt/debris in the sump, flooding that exceeds the
pump's capacity, electrical or mechanical failure
in the pump, etc.) may prevent your pump from
functioning normally. To prevent possible water
damage due to flooding, consult your retailer about a
secondary AC sump pump, a DC backup sump pump,
and/or a high water alarm. See the "Troubleshooting
Chart" in this manual for information about common
sump pump problems and remedies. For more
information, see your retailer or call Myers customer
service at 1-888-987-8677.
