LIBERTY NIGHTEYE WIRELESS SUMP PUMP ALARM BUYER'S GUIDE

Pump Products is now stocking the Liberty NightEye pump alarm. Now you can have the comfort of knowing that your sump or sewage pump is under control and your home or basement is safe when you are not present. It represents a step forward for the pumping industry as it adapts to the proliferation of smart technology. Mobility, responsiveness, control and connectivity are all cornerstone elements of NightEye technology.

The ALM-P1-Eye comes equipped with a sensor float that can snap onto a discharge pipe.  The snap-on sensor is compact and can operate in a tight basin with little interference. The ALM-2-Eye comes equipped with a standard wide angle float for sewage applications.

Installation and startup is a straightforward process as well. The patented BlinkUp technology connects the NightEye to the wireless router of a home or building. The first step is to properly install the alarm system itself and connect it to a power source. Once the hardware is in place, the software component needs to be added.

The NightEye Alarm

NightEye operation requires downloading the Liberty smartphone app in the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store and creating an account. There is no service or subscription fee for downloading the app, but standard data messaging rates may apply.

Once you have created an account and selected your preferred wireless network, you can begin the Blinkup process. Simply select ”send Blinkup” and once the countdown screen appears, press your phone or tablet against the NightEye’s setup LED sensor.

Once you receive confirmation that the process is complete (in the form of a green checkmark) you can test the system.

In addition to monitoring the water level the Nighteye also detects the status of a WiFi connection. NightEye enabled devices continuously communicate their status to the cloud and any interruption will send trigger a notification. Power outages and the temperature of a basement (important when winter comes and pipes start to freeze) can also be monitored. Sophisticated “smart monitoring” capabilities prevent extraneous nuisance notifications so that you will only receive the notices you deem relevant.

Another critical feature is that the NightEye can include information and alerts for up to four different accounts. Meaning, you can have alerts sent to your plumber or contractor or even a neighbor that has a spare key. That gives you full coverage no matter the situation. Worry no more about groundwater overwhelming your sump pit and flooding your basement while you’re on vacation.

If you move you can take the NightEye as it is easily transportable. If you're a nice, generous person you can also leave it with a new homeowner (make sure to remove the device from your account and clear the WiFi credentials).

“This is just the first generation of what we see as the long life of the NightEye technology. On the residential side, it can be used in so many applications – vacation homes, multi-family units,” according to a Liberty sales rep.

Liberty plans to increase innovation by integrating the NightEye into various other Liberty products. The NightEye smart technology is the wave of the future.
