ZoellerWaste-Mate 267-0001 Sewage Pump, 1/2 HP Automatic – Heavy-Duty Submersible Sewage, Effluent or Dewatering Pump

Extremely heavy and durable. The pump looks and feels solid made. Item arrived on time and well-packaged. The pump's 85 gal/min flow rate was more than enough to handle my basement bathroom's shower, sink and toilet. The pump was easy to install with very good instructions and diagrams to aid you in proper installation. The pump functioned flawlessly and I was surprised at the quiet operation and how quickly it drained the sump tank.While this pump may not be the cheapest one out there, Zoeller is known for its quality and durability. I highly recommend this pump for those reasons.

I live in a 1920s-era home in Brazil, Indiana. The property has an exceedingly high water table and I've used these pumps to keep my basement dry (I don't use them for sewage--just my basement sumps). The oldest one I own I installed back in like 2012 or 2013, and it's still working flawlessly. The newer one--of the same model--handles my basement perimeter drain and as I type this, it's kicking on almost every 10 or 15 seconds due to a major rain that we're currently getting (2-3" worth).I can't say enough good stuff about these pumps.Word of advice: Make sure to drill the little 3/16ths weep hole about 2 fingers above the discharge port and do whatever you can to make sure your exit line has long-arch angles to push through for any turns your exit line has to make as it'll reduce noise and vibration. My current pumps push up about 5-6' before leveling and going out of the house. Doing this means the pipe uses the floor joists for suspension before exiting the home. If you do this, don't disregard the amount of noise the pump will reverberate throughout the home because unless you have a special way to suspend the pipe, you'll hear a lot of noise from the pipe and the pump. (Which is perfectly normal, but the solution isn't a new pump but rather, a better installation of the exit line that most people need contractor help to do right.)Overall, these pumps are amazing and well worth their expense.

Expensive and worth it. The original lasted 30 years. The motor wouldn’t start. I didn’t bother to troubleshoot the failure. Previously, the original had one switch replacement, about ten years ago. This new unit is identical to the original. I expect it will last three decades too. I know the photo is nasty looking to some, just appreciate the person that replaces these.

Dimensions said 18.5 inches high. Must be box height even though it wasn't 18 either because product was only 14 inches high. If you want 18, don't order this!

Worked perfect

Easy to install as a replacement for worn out 30 year old Zoeller

Bought this almost four years ago to the day, and it has failed. This is NOT a fun job, and now I get to do it again. Not a chance I buy this brand again.

Failed after 10 years. Probably lasted longer than other brands. Tripping the GFCI receptacle and flooded the room where it’s located. It still works when plugged into a standard outlet but obviously there’s current leakage inside the pump and it’s not safe. At first I replaced the GFCI outlet thinking the outlet went bad and the pump worked again for another week and flooded the basement again. Same issue as before. I just purchased another same exact pump and will replace it. The price increased by $120 since. Ugh..
