Incredibly Quiet and Powerful

Incredibly Quiet and Powerful
WOW IS THIS PUMP QUIET! Replaced a 1/2HP Campbell Hausfeld sump where the switch had started to fail and not always trigger when the float was up. Thankfully we had a battery backup sump in place as it took over while we were out, otherwise we would have had a flooded basement! First things first, if you're reading this and on the fence about a backup system, get one - it will save your basement from flooding, probably more than once.Back to this sump pump, the whole reason for this review, it is QUIET. The 1/2 HP we replaced could be heard running from the main floor, wish I would have put a db meter on it to see how loud it was. This Wayne pump runs at only 60db! For comparison, normal close quarters conversation is around 60db. Uploaded a couple screenshots from Sound Meter, which was used in my phone at a distance of 3ft from the covered (not sealed) pit. With water running into a near-full pit, the db sits around 38db. When the pump runs, it jumps up to around 60db, which by my ears might more be contributed to the sound of water rushing through the PVC pipe, and not necessarily all from the sump pump. Once the pump shuts off, the noise level settles in around 42db as the trickling noise and splashing of water is louder in a near-empty pit that a near-full one.Helps that a few years back, we also added the Quiet Check Valve, which prevents the load "slam" you hear from water pushing back down against the valve after the pump shuts off. Now, unless you're right outside the utility room door, or in the room with the pump, you can't tell it's running.Well worth the investment. The switch, the most prone part to fail, can be had on Amazon for about $20 it appears. I hope to get 5+ years out of this pump before a switch failure, then for a simple $20 fix, get another 3-5 years out of it before worrying about a full replacement again.

Replaced a 15 year old pump that was on it's last legs. Thought about getting the same pump (very pricey and not a common model), but decided to go with this because of the reviews. Installation was a breeze. It runs about 1/5 the time the old one did and is very, very quiet. I was kind of worried it was "too quiet" and I wouldn't notice if it ever does stop working, but I can still hear it upstairs when I'm listening for it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Horror Story with a Happy Ending Courtesy of Wayne Sump Pump!
Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2016
Style: 3/4 HP stainless steel sump pumpsPattern Name: Sump PumpVerified Purchase
I recently purchased a 95% gut renovation in Chicago. The plumbing work that was done is phenomenal, so I was extremely surprised to find a 1/2 inch of water in half of my newly finished basement after our first flash flood rain of the summer last month. I pulled the sump basin lid off and sure enough, it completely full. I fished around in the water with my hand until I found float and wiggled it around a few times which finally triggered the pump to turn on. It drained the basin and drained the water that had backed in the inlet pipes, leaving me to push all of the standing water floor drain and spend a few days cleaning up the mess.

When it rained again that weekend, I immediately went down to the basement and sure enough, I watched the basin fill quickly, but the float didn't trigger pump again, so there I sat on the floor in the utility room, for 3 hours in the middle of the night, hitting the float with a piece of wood every 5 minutes to turn the pump on.

Once it stopped raining, I pulled the pump out, which is when I learned it was a Flotec FPZS33T model. I disassembled the float switch, cleaned all of the contacts, reassembled the switch, checked all of the seals, cleaned the intake, and put the pump back in the basin. I ran my garden hose into basin, and successfully triggered the float switch. I was feeling pretty satisfied with my handy work. Problem solved right?

Wrong. We got through two more decent rains without any problems. The pump seemed to be working well. On Wednesday night (two days ago), the entire Chicagoland area was under Flash Flood and Tornado warnings. When the rain started, I went down to the basement and everything seemed good. After about 20 minutes, I went back down to the basement and noticed that basin was 2/3 full, but the pump was still running full tilt because I could not only hear it, but I could hear the water moving through the discharge pipe. I sat there for the next 20 minutes and watched the basin slowly fill to capacity, backing up the inlet pipes yet again. Within an hour of the rain starting, I had water beginning to pool on the floor again, not as badly as the first time because the pump was actually on, but bad enough to really tick me off. This pump was less than a year old, and it already had a faulty switch and completely failed to keep pace with a regular summer thunder storm!

I ordered a Wayne CDU980E 3/4 horsepower sump pump on Amazon with overnight delivery. The pump came by noon yesterday. I had it installed in 15 minutes because the fittings and pipe lengths were a perfect match. I tested it and it ran great. Last night we had another torrential downpour and new pump worked like a champ! This thing didn't even break a sweat, and it is actually a bit quieter than the other pump to boot! I'm very satisfied. Great product and incredibly easy to install! The Wayne pump only cost $30 more than the Flotec pump and it is a much better design and WAY me powerful. I'll monitor the performance over the summer and post back if anything changes.

The good news for Flotec is that I might not throw their garbage pump away immediately. I'm thinking of making an outdoor basin that catches rainwater from my gutter downspout and then pump it into a larger catchment in my garden to use for watering my plants. So yeah, this pump will spend the remainder of its life in my garden, moving rainwater for my vegetables, but I will never allow it near my home ever again!

Do not buy this pump for the app, so far the pump works well and was easy to install. The app has lag issues and my basement could potentially be flooding before I would receive notification, also the float cannot be adjusted to allow more water in before pump turns on. One day I had over 500 cycles in less then 24 hours, this is likely to cause premature failure

Used this sup pump to replace one that was about6-7 years old. We live on the side of a hill and our sump pump runs a lot. We like the many good reviews of this pump. Had it installed a couple months and it seems to be working well. Runs shorter period of time and takes the water in the hole down quickly.

Pump is silent in the pit! Only been in there a week but I'm happy with the performance. It's pumping 12-15 feet straight up. Definitely buy the one way valve made by Wayne that screws right in. It was recommended during checkout.

You do have to now some basics about plumbing to install this, but it wasn't difficult. A little quieter than our last one, but I can still hear it in the living room, one floor above where it is installed. Still, not bad. Can't tell yet about longevity, but I can tell you it's working overtime these days and it's been reliable, so I'm glad I replaced our old one!

5.0 out of 5 stars Party on Wayne!... Party on Garth!

We just moved in to our newly renovated house and it had a new sump pump but a cheap one (1/4 hp and $90-$100 price range). This cheap pump would run for 1-2 minutes at a time and so loud that it would wake us up at night. So I googled best sump pump and this Wayne one came up as highest rated.

I watched a few youtube videos on how to install, and it was super easy, since all my pipes were new and the pit was already set I didn't need to replace any piping or dig the pit, I just unscrewed the old pump and screwed this one in. Then I filled up the pit with water and did a test run and it emptied in 2 seconds with only a gentle noise. I was actually blown away. I couldn't understand why anyone would endure the noise of the cheaper pump to save $100 or $150.

In terms of noise, I wanted to give a detailed review because this was our primary concern:

-the noise is comparable to a quiet/newer dishwasher when you are beside the pump. Since ours is in an enclosed utility closet the pump operation noise is not noticeable from outside the closet unless you are told what to listen for and sit quietly to wait for it. It is also so quick that the sound doesn't last long.

-The pump is so powerful and quick that it creates some force when it turns on and sends the water out. You may hear the water flow through pipes if you can hear water flow through other pipes in your house (like if you can hear somebody empty the bathtub when you are downstairs). This may or may not be noticeable depending on how insulated your walls are and whether or not you have secured the outflow pipes (or if they're just flopping around willy-nilly).

The pump also feels very solid and looks well built.

The only negative was shipping took 2 days longer than expected and that happened to be during a rain event so we were suffering with the old pump.

I would totally recommend.

As always with Amazon it arrived in perfect condition, well packed and in time. This pump smels quality and is very strong and powerful. I’m very satisfied for the time being. Only time will say if it will last to be honest but I’m confident.

I reviewed many sump pumps before I decided to buy. This pump was highly rated and for good reason. Great pump so far
I would've gave it 5 stars but I've only had it a month.
Quiet, efficient and money well spent
BUY ONE. You won't be disappointed
