Simer 2925B Self-Contained, Corrosion-Resistant Above-Floor Sump/Laundry Sink Pump

jbosak: The pump works great and is pretty quite too the capacity is very large , thus the pump doesn’t have to run often but is very efficient

Christopher Boyd: Product was easy to install (with some basic plumbing skills). I have added a rubber mat under the unit based on other reviews about excessive noise and I find it to be quiet while running. The pipes must be properly strapped and a rubber coupling should be added.

Ryan: So if you don't want to install this 5 times like a cool person then please read. There is a little plastic pin that holds the float in the right place. It is extremely breakable and extremely important. Mine broke while opening and it took me sometime to figure out that it was really needed. If it does break, or is broken, just cut a little piece of wire and install it by bending down both sides. Trust me, you do not want to have to remove the lid after installation so please take your time the first time or this will chew up a few hours.

I used it for a basement utility sink and it is working great!

JakeM: I've been using this for about a year now, and it's holding up great. It's a bit loud- I can hear it running in the basement from my living room directly above it. But it doesn't have to operate for more than 20sec or so to get rid of my washing machine wastewater, so I don't have a problem with it. But I do have a few complaints surrounding the installation, which is why I knocked it down a star:

1. As others have mentioned, you'll need to supply your own external pipes and fittings- there are three pvc screw connections in the unit (one for input, one for output, and one for a vent) and everything else is up to you. My installation took 3 extra trips to Home Depot for various additional components, but someone who knows what they're doing could probably plan better than me.

2. You definitely need to add your own check valve outside the pump. DO NOT RELY ON THE INCLUDED INTERNAL ONE. I'm pumping my laundry waste water up about 8 feet to the sewer drain, and every time the pump shut off I could hear the water rushing back down into the pump. It eventually started leaking around the top, until I added a secondary check valve. No problems anymore.

Bottom line-...

Kirk Fischer: Trouble with float sticking, pump continues to run too long.

Art D: Good product quality, easy to assemble and install but could use a better installation guide for completing the system

M: Working great so far as a laundry room lift pump for our basement. A tad bit noisy but no worse than our sump pump. Ours is installed on the floor next to the washer and slop sink and pumps about 8 feet up to connect to another 2 inch drain pipe that leads out of the house. Install was pretty easy and I like that it is completely self contained. Trickiest part of the install was finding a place to run the vent pipe. Once that was figured out for my install (we tied into the vent pipe for our basement sewage ejector). The rest of it was straight forward.

Noelle Nelson: Basement sink that i never had but finally decided to plumb. I installed this unit based on recommendation from a friend. Take your time and complete assembly accordingly to instructions. Unfortunately in my case the plastic housing around the pump impeller was cracked either from the factory or during shipping so after install the pump would not pump.....after several piping modifications, thinking it was something i had wrong i disassembled the unit and found the problem with the broken housing. Returned unit no issue to Amazon. They sent a replacement unit and it’s working like a charm. 1/4 hp pump may not be big enough for some but this unit seems to have no problem keeping up with faucet. My unit pumps approximately 8ft of head pressure from the 1.5” discharge outlet through a 1” ball valve/check valve and piping. In case your wondering i did install a “P” trap on the sink and a 1.5” vent off the pump box.

D. M. Evans: Quite easy to fit using standard ABS pipe from local merchant. Assembles easily. we use it for a basement kitchen sink. I think an external filter would be useful, to stop solid items such as vegetable peelings etc from entering its chamber.

NewmanGT: Overall works great, but you'll need to provide quite a few of your own fittings. All 1 1/2" ABS pipping fits.

Only been using a few days, but so far, no issues.
