Question: does the thermal overload switch reset automatically?
Document: This made retrofitting the installation much simpler than trying to realign a Zoeller replacement with it's pivoting arm.You're likely comparing the Zoeller to this pump and for a packed sump or one with very frequent operation that can't afford a switch failure, I'd recommend the Liberty.
Many of the floating switches I've seen bob around and due to any vibration of the pump whereby it will walk over to one side and prevent the switch from turning off could be a disaster for other pumps but not this one. With all the heavy snow melt and rain, this pump is like Old Faithfull in spouting off with plenty of power. I highly reccomend it and my neighbor just bought two on my recommendation.
For a while I was concerned the Liberty wasn't running so I would check on it from time to time watching the sump slowly fill to ensure the Liberty Pump was working. * The Liberty Pump doesn't need as much room for the switch. Because the float slides up and down the body of the pump (pushing a magnet up inside that control block you see at the top of the pump) there isn't as much room needed for the moving part.
I did a lot of research on getting a new pump, and it came down between this one and the Zoeller. I decided on this one as I saw a lot of bad reviews on the zoeller switch. This one seems really bulletproof and I couldn't find one bad review for them. Where I found dozens on the Zoeller. Also the Zoeller warranty starts the second the pump is made, where the Liberty is from the date of purchase.
The Zoeller Mxx series generally use a mechanical switch actuated by a float/rod/arm assembly. The Liberty 2xx series generally use a magnetic/reed switch actuated by a motor body-conformal rod/float assembly. In my research, I found several instances of switch failure on the Zoeller, either apparently caused by water intrusion into the switch housing or mechanical failure.
Bought this to replace a 4 month old Zoeller who's switch died.Not much to write about a pump. I stuck it in our laundry basin sump, turned it on, and it works. Again and again.Several of the other product reviews of this pump REALLY helped me to decide to go with this Liberty pump. Specifically the design of Liberty's switches versus Zoeller. (And the lack of actually fulfilling/honoring the warranty with ridiculous BS. )Good luck.
I think this is actually a positive because the pump can run longer, evacuating more water, before switching off and less frequently. Because of this switch point height I couldn't place the pump on bricks or a platform. I instead shop-vac'd my sump pump completely clear of rocks, debris, and water to ensure a very clean surface to place the pump. I'll probably have to do this 1-2x per year. * The Liberty Pump is quieter.
We live in a house that has a basement where none should exist. It's below the water table and whenever it rains our sump fills quickly. I have gone thru dozens of pumps over the past few decades and none have come close to being as effective as this one. There are two features this pump has that we find essential - high power 1/2 HP, anything less justn't seem to be able to keep up with the rising ground water; and most importantly the in-line float switch.
For a few weeks I would tap the float on the Zoeller down and let it come back up which would make it kick in. After a while I got tired of this and decided with spring rains coming it wasn't time to keep risking a basement flood. I read about this Liberty Pump having a different type of switch and decided to give it a shot.Differences:* The Liberty Pump switch point is a bit higher than the Zoeller, so my sump fills with more water before the pump kicks on.
Background:I had aZoeller 98-0001 115-Volt 1/2 Horse Power Model M98 Flow-Mate Automatic Cast Iron Single Phase Submersible Sump/Effluent Pumprunning for about 4 years in my basement which has very regular requirement to clear the sump (at least 1x per hour even in dry summer conditions). The Zoeller switch was beginning to fail - which is a common issue reported on the reviews of the Zeoller.
