Sump Pit Requirements

• The sump pit must not be less than 18” in diameter and 24” deep, unless otherwise specifically recommended by the manufacturer.

• The pit must be accessible and located such that all drainage flows into the pit due to gravity.

• The sump pit may be constructed of tile, concrete, steel, plastic or other suitable material as approved by local codes.

• The pit bottom must be solid and provide permanent support for the sump.

• The sump pit must be fitted with a removable cover adequate to support anticipated loads in areas of use and to prevent refuse from entering the pit.
