Well, I got my hole dug in the basement....man was it pure B&#$ch. I literally had to dig a little, then pale the water out. But I got about 24" by 30" pit dug, and a 18"x 24" sump basin installed. Pump is in, with a temp. discharge hose(ran out of time on the permanent one, should have it finished in a day or two). At 5ft head, this thing is runnin' for about 10 seconds every 5 minutes. At 10ft head it's rated for over 1600 gallons a hour. The way I figure, this thing is pumpin' at least 50 gallons an hour...and it's been dry here for a week, I plowed yesterday and the ground was perfect. Wonder how long the pump will last if it keeps this up???
