How
does it work?
Your house water pressure is the source of
the energy needed to pump excess water out of the sump well.
The unit is connected to your ¾” (model MG 22) or 1" (model
MG 36) municipal water supply, after the water meter in your
basement. The pump itself is easily attached to the ceiling
or ceiling joist above your sump well.
Once the sump well water level reaches a pre-set
height, the hydraulic float switch automatically activates Water Commander™.
Sump water is quickly drawn out of the well with a strong suction from Water
Commander's™ powerful jet pump and is discharged to the exterior. As soon as
the sump well is almost empty, Water Commander™ automatically shuts off until
needed again.
There is no limit to the number of times Water
Commander™ will automatically start, nor is there a limit to the amount of
time it will run. If necessary, Water Commander™ runs continuously. Even if
you are on an extended trip, Water Commander™ will stay on active duty.
Water Commander™ reliably operates as a completely
independent system, not interconnected with your primary
sump pump. Its separate discharge pipe provides protection
against a backup caused by a frozen primary discharge line.
Advantages of
Uses water power to operate – no battery or electricity
needed
Kicks in, if needed, during power outages or primary sump pump failure
Works in tandem with your electrical sump pump, if necessary, in an extreme
downpour
Starts automatically - no need to be home as you would if
using a generator
Handles
solids up to a diameter of .033”
(MG22) or .042”
(MG36)
Easily
mounts on ceiling above sump well or can be mounted in various positions
(vertical or horizontal) as situation requires.Suction / discharge lines can have multiple 90°
turns.
Operation is silent
The superior residential water-powered backup sump pump
WATER COMMANDER™ is the ONLY water-powered
backup sump pump for ¾ inch or 1 inch residential pipe that
will remove up to 1,324 (¾" pipe) or 2,160 (1" pipe) gallons
per hour at 10 foot lift. (See Tables) Up to 77% more water
is removed per hour than the next highest rated
water-powered backup sump pump available for home use.
WATER COMMANDER™ is the ONLY ceiling mounted
backup pump that pumps at a 1:2 ratio at 60 PSI. That means for every gallon of
city water introduced, two gallons of sump water will be ejected from your sump
well! Other ceiling mounted models are limited to a 1:1 ratio, meaning if your
municipal water flow is 10 gallons per minute (600 gal/hour), your sump can only
pump 600 gal/hour. You will never be able to remove more than that amount from
your sump well even under ideal conditions.
Water-powered backup pumps that are located down
in the sump well, to which city water must be pumped downward from the main
water line, are advertised to pump at a 1:2 ratio. However, the total amount
pumped upward and out of the basement includes BOTH city water and sump water.
These models can typically pump no more than 8 gallons per minute out of the
sump well under the best conditions. Under this scenario, a 750 gallon per hour
rating would include both city and sump water, and be inadequate for a good
backup system.
