How to replace a sump pump


I show how to replace a sump pump in a basement. If all you need is a new sump pump, you should be able to unscrew the discharge pipe and screw it on to the new pump.
In most applications, a 1/2 hp pump will do the job and last 6 to 10 years. If you want to know the recommended horse power for your job, you can call the Wayne company at 800-237-0987. Give them the height of the discharge pipe and the overall distance, along with how many elbows you have and they will give a suggested size for the pump. I have found them to be very helpful.
