What It Is & Where It's Used

Sewage ejector pumps remove wastewater from fixtures located below the main sewer line, where gravity drainage isn't possible. These pumps handle solids-laden wastewater and discharge it to the building's main drain or municipal sewer system.

Essential in basement bathrooms, below-grade commercial spaces, restaurants with floor drains below sewer level, and any facility requiring wastewater lift. Found in commercial buildings, residences, and industrial facilities throughout the tri-state area.
