[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 983855, member: 52972"] I think the Water Powered Sump Pump is a really ingenius idea, however it appears that it is only designed to be a backup sump pump to a conventional electric pump in lew of using a battery backup system. I think the water powered sump pump would be more reliable since the battery has a limited amount of backup power. The most difficult part of the water powered sump pump is the installation because it requires a minimum 3/4" water line which is much more difficult to install especially if there is no large water lines near by to tap into. If there is access to a large water line near the sump pump location it would be a fairly simple installation. It would be my especially if you have the tools and skills to route the water pipe to the sump pump. It might expensive to have a plumber do that work. ...Rich [/QUOTE]
