If You Are Installing A New Sump Pump
• Locate the sump approximately 6” from the basement wall in the lowest point of the basement floor.
• With chalk, mark out the diameter of the pit on the floor
• Cut through the floor with masonry drill or other concrete cutting tool and excavate below the floor to the required depth.
• Level the bottom and set sump pit in place. Tie in any sub-floor drains. Backfill and mortar tile or sump pit in place. The top should be flush with the floor for surface drainage unless otherwise specified by codes.
• It is recommended that the bottom of the tile be provided with a concrete base. However, a concrete block or bricks may be used to provide support for the sump pump.
