Sump pump.
 
We're going to install a sump pump in our basement. Any suggestions on
brand/model and where to buy?

Sump pump.
 
I bought a Flotec submersible pump at Home Depot for around $90 2 years
ago. So far it has worked great. Depending on where your normal water table
lies you may have to sit the pump on some bricks in the well or the pump
will run too often.

If you have power outages or are concerned get a dual setup with a
water main powered pump

If you are going to use a submersible you may want to take a look at
the Zoeller line of pumps.They are not cheap. The only problem I have
had with them is float switch replacement every 5-8 yrs with the side
float model. I actually have two. One in operation and one in
reserve.

So the pump works off pressure from the water main? Cool idea!
