Grinder pumps can be installed in the basement or in the yard. If installed in the yard, the holding tank must be buried deep enough that the pump and sewage pipes are below the frost line. A grinder pump is different from a sump pump or effluent pump. There are two types of grinder pumps, semi-positive displacement (SPD) and centrifugal.
Worse yet, if enough water from your neighbor's sump pump gets into your yard, and that water accumulates against the walls and foundation of your home, it could cause a slew of damages.
These thermostatically controlled pumps often have a built-in "normally closed" check-valve which prevents water in the cold water line from entering into the hot water line. Compared to a dedicated return line, using the cold water line as a return has the disadvantage of heating the cold water pipe (and the contained water).

The discharge pipe may be as small as 50 mm diameter carrying sewage at very high flow rates. [ 2 ] Pressure sewers are also used to collect the discharge from septic tanks and discharge this into the local gravity sewer to protect local ground water from contamination.
The output of small condensate pumps is usually routed to a sewer, plumbing drain, or the outside world via PVC plastic tubing (condensate drain line). In some locales, condensate water is not permitted to enter a sewer system and must be directed to the outside of the house, usually into the leader/gutter downspout system, or the stormwater ...
Liquid-to-water heat pumps (also called water-to-water) are hydronic systems that carry heating or cooling through the building through pipes to conventional radiators, underfloor heating, baseboard radiators and hot water tanks. These heat pumps are also preferred for pool heating. Heat pumps typically only heat water to about 55 °C (131 °F ...
Pumps to help take some of the pressure off a dam that's perilously close to failing are on site to help drain Oktibbeha County Lake. The pumps arrived Friday after a contract for their rental was ...
