Sewage vs. Grinder Pumps

Many confuse Sewage Pumps for Grinder Pumps. They have definite similarities but are designed for different applications.

Have zero experience with this apparatus and just acquired a place that has one. This was very helpful. Thank you!

Excellent information. I’m retired Master Plumber with 40 years of experience. Great to inform general public of the process these pumps perform and the cost factors.

You show the best information I never had before, thank you so much.

An exceptional job with giving information. Thank you. I am looking for a sewage pump right now.

Great informative video 👌 Yesterday had the pump go out and just assumed it was a grinder pump. Hopefully it's a cheaper sewer pump instead.
Thanks

This video didn't mention the delayed-grinder pump. I used to have an issue with two of my girls. They produce horse-size bowel movements (like their mother) to the point that even commercial toilets have a hard time handling them in one flush. I ended up installing an oversized professional "delayed-grinder pump" which simply takes an extra 5-10 seconds grinding before full pump mode kicks in. No matter what is in their bowel movement (unchewed peanuts, corn kernnals, apple seeds, etc) this extra grinding feature has proved invaluable. If this ever fails, I will install an over-sized garbage disposal they will have to manually turn on prior to a flush and then use a sewage pump to relocate their waste to the city.

I need to pump about 150ft in legth to a septic tank, which sits about 60ft higher than my cabin. Do you think a sewage pump would be up to the task? Id prefer to not use a grinder pump based on what youve said in this video. Thanks!

Hi, I am looking for an ejection system for a backyard cottage. Hardly any rise, but 300 feet from stack in house. I want to just feed a sink, a shower and one toilet into it. What would work best for me? One concern is coming out of the trench at house. Can I have back to back 90s from trench up into house? Thanks for any help or tips you can offer

Hi we live in an apt complex. Would love to get some guidance on they type of pump we could use to solve our issue, which is really a faulty design of our sewer system.

So what do you do when you just have a sewage pump and you ate too much cornflakes and now it's clogged?
