Here’s another minty-fresh edition of everyone’s favorite semi-recurring content feature: Inspector Pumphead’s Quick Tips! Inspector Pumphead says make sure your pump has a warranty before you purchase In this space, I, Inspector Pumphead from Pump Products, will be sending out friendly reminders and dispensing basic tips for ordering, maintaining and servicing pumps. The Inspector is in and here to help! Quick Tip: Many online pump vendors do not honor or service warranty claims.  Imagine, if you will, the feeling of finally receiving the brand new Zoeller sump pump you ordered a few days ago from PumpProducts.com. The look! The feel! The smell! The high quality engineering! And of course, nothing can beat the feeling of knowing that all your sump application needs will be met by a sturdy, reliable and high performing pump. But then… the unthinkable happens. Something cracks or breaks. It may be a seal or a bearing. Or maybe the pump just seems to stop running. You check and make sure that there’s nothing clogging the pipes. There is definitely something wrong with your brand new pump and you don’t know what to do. Forgiveness, please, for bringing up such a terrifying nightmare scenario. It’s scary and I don’t want to expose anyone to trauma. The intrepid shipping team at PumpProducts.com works hard to check that every pump that leaves our warehouse is in fine working condition (and it should be noted that Zoeller also factory tests all pumps before they are shipped). But still, we live in a broken and imperfect world. These things happen. That’s why PumpProducts.com has a whole department dedicated to processing warranty claims for all of our manufacturing partners. These dedicated professionals will take all the pertinent information about your pump order, fill out the attendant paperwork and communicate with the factory to make sure you get a replacement pump in a timely manner. As a premier distributor we are authorized to file these claims. We go above and beyond for our customers. The thing you should understand is that many big online vendors may list the same pumps at similar prices but without a warranty backing those orders up. If something goes wrong with the pump, you would have very little recourse for obtaining a replacement. You might just have to pay the cost of a full new pump. We all hope to make it through life unscathed, but unfortunately what can go wrong often will go wrong. That’s why it’s important to have experienced professionals on your side, working to make things right. And if you want a little extra peace of mind, a battery backup pump is always a fine choice. Pump Products sales specialists are standing by to help you find the right pump or part, as well as to provide price quotes, stocking availability and shipping information.

Welcome back to Inspector Pumphead Recommends! In this feature, I will be recommending a specific pump model and highlighting the features, specifications and benefits of this pump. It could be a new product, a best seller, a seasonally appropriate pump or one that is strongly recommended by the application engineers. Let's dive in! Zoeller M63  Today I am highlighting the Zoeller 63 sump pump. The Zoeller model 63 is part of Zoeller's "Premium" series of sump pumps.  These pumps are based off similar principles to the Zoeller 50 series "Flow-Mate" pumps but with superior building materials and advanced switch technologies. The Zoeller 63 is designed for use in groundwater, dewatering, and sump system applications in residential or light commercial settings. It is often used in residential construction areas as well. Construction Corrosion resistance is extremely important for any pump that could be exposed to groundwater. The base and volute of the Zoeller 63 is made of rugged cast iron and includes a powder coated epoxy finish for added corrosion resistance. This design also has heat dissipation from the motor to ensure a long life. The non-clog vortex impeller is cast iron as well and allows the pump to easily pass up to ½” spherical solids.  The convenient carry handle is made of stainless steel. This pump model is hermetically sealed to be watertight, dust-tight, and completely submersible. Another aspect that sets the Model 63 apart is the advanced switch technology. It includes a float-operated 2 pole mechanical switch with a stainless steel float guard and switch. The float is buoyant polypropylene which prevents water from filling the float bell, thus avoiding possible malfunction. A Viton switch arm boot is included. The Zoeller 63 includes a heavy duty power cord with an LED lighted plug. Performance Specs Model Discharge HP Voltage Phase GPM Max.

Welcome back to Inspector Pumphead Recommends! In this feature, I will be recommending a specific pump model and highlighting the features, specifications and benefits of this pump. It could be a new product, a best seller, a seasonally appropriate pump or one that is strongly recommended by the application engineers. Let's dive in! Zoeller Model 49  Today I am highlighting the Zoeller Model 49 Water Ridd'r III sump pump.  This Water Ridd'r pump is expressly designed for the use in residential or light commercial applications and is able to transport groundwater or graywater/effluent. Construction Corrosion resistance is extremely important for any pump that could be exposed to graywater and the Zoeller 49 is no different. The volute and pump base are engineered plastic with a baked on enamel finish, while the motor housing is rugged cast iron. The motor is hermetically sealed to be watertight, dust tight, and submersible. The impeller is also made of engineered plastic in a non-clog vortex design which directs solids away from the (carbon vs. ceramic) mechanical seals. All in all, the Water-Ridd'r is a sturdy pump that can handle whatever you throw at it. A tethered float switch comes attached and a plastic carry handle is mounted on the top of the pump for convenient transport.
