Product Description
Product Description
Zoeller Pump Company’s Model 98 Sump Pumps can offer protection and prevent flooding after heavy rainfall or storms. Underneath your structure, pits collect water. If the water level reaches a certain point, automatic or manual settings on the machine can efficiently pump that water away from your property’s foundation. How often the pump runs depends on the amount of moisture in the space. A corrosion-resistant finish over cast iron construction provides incredible strength and durability, and stainless steel screws assembling the seal, arm, handle, and guard stave off rust. The pump uses a 1 ½-inch discharge pipe and can pass spherical solids up to ½ inch in diameter. The lack of screen keeps the unit running smoothly. We offer accessories such as alarm systems with simplex or duplex control panels designed to keep you informed about your sump pump’s water level. The alarm gives you peace of mind that your pump is operating as intended.
From the Manufacturer
When you have residential or commercial wastewater issues, you can count on Zoeller Pumps to deliver the very best solutions-our commitment to top quality offers you years of service and durability.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
When my inspector flagged this issue back in the fall, he recommended a Zoeller for a replacement. So I jumped on Amazon and grabbed this one. My inspector has seen hundreds of properties, and he has lots of experience. When he recommends a brand, I almost always go with his suggestion. Based on the review for this item, sounds like everyone agrees that Zoeller is quality.
For what it's worth, I replaced an Everbilt, which is not much cheaper, but definitely seems like a much lower quality.
Thankfully, I was able to use all of the existing parts. It took some effort to clean up the PVC threads from the old sump, and then I added some pipe dope for good measure.
Per the instructions, I added a 3/16 hole to prevent air lock issues. MY PIECE OF ADVICE - drill the hole pretty close to the threading, and angle it downward. My first hole (which I patched) was inside my crock, but not angled down enough and too high. The first time the pump ran, it shot water everywhere as the pressurized stream from the air hole hit the side of the crock and splattered. Patched the hole, pulled the pump, and drilled a fresh, lower, and better angled hole. Still a little splatter, but it's fine with the sump lid on.
My only complaint - the item arrived having previously been opened, but, as far as I can tell, unused. I'm guess this was an Amazon return that Amazon decided was good enough to sell new again. It looks like someone got this item, opened the box, determined, for whatever reason, they didn't want it, and then sent it back. That being the case, I was comfortable with keeping and installing what I received. Happy to not create unnecessary costs with a replacement request. (Good for ole planet earth too).
Anyways, 5 out of 5. Can't speak to longevity from personal experience, but very pleased so far!
