Pump Products now carries Zoeller’s Shark Model 800 Grinder Pumps for home basements without a gravity sewer that require pumping wastewater up to a municipal sewer. These 1/2 horsepower pumps bring commercial technology, including Zoeller’s patented “Tri-Slice” cutter technology, to the residential market in a light-weight, easy-to-install unit.

“Homeowners experiencing chronic sewage ejector pump clogging by “flushable wipes” and other synthetics have been looking for a domestic grinder with these specs for years,” says Product Expert Fred Hettinger. “Zoeller’s Shark Model 800 Grinder Pump is designed to provide maximum efficiency and grinding power in a unit that can be plugged directly into a standard residential 115-volt outlet, which eliminates the wiring problems encountered when installing a 2HP grinder pump in a home.”

In addition to eliminating the rewiring, control panels, and electrical expertise required to install a standard grinder pump in a home, Zoeller’s New Shark Model 800 Grinder has a 1 1/4″ discharge that can be easily adjusted to 2″ piping. It provides high flow rates (46 gpm) and can be directly connected to existing sewer lines. A patented Tri-Slice cutter delivers more than 250,000 cuts per minute using three independent cutting channels that easily grind down large solids that would clog an ordinary sewage pump. It is currently available in automatic (Zoeller Shark Model BN800) and manual (Zoeller Shark Model N800) manual grinder pump ]) designs.

“Compared to traditional 2HP units, Zoeller’s 1/2 HP Shark 800 Grinder substantially reduces the initial outlay and annual operating cost of a grinder system in a clog-prone residential sewer system,” says Hettinger. “It’s a strong product and we think it will solve a lot of problems.”

Equipped with 500,000 square feet of warehouse space in New Jersey’s Meadowlands, Pump Products maintains a large Zoeller grinder pump inventory and will stock the new Shark 800 Grinder Pumps in standard and soon-to-be-available manual and piggyback float offerings to accommodate same-day free shipping.

“You’ll be hard-pressed to find another Master Zoeller Distributor that carries as many sewage pumps as we do,” says Hettinger. “In addition to the new Shark Model 800 Grinder Pumps, we currently stock every pump in the Zoeller 280 Series and 290 Series in every voltage. We also have a large inventory of Zoeller Wastemate sewage ejector pumps in 115 and 230 volts and three phase models in 200, 230, and 460 volts.”

Designed, machined, and assembled in the United States, every Zoeller pump is factory tested prior to shipping to ensure problem-free, out of the box operation.
