Like sump pumps, ejector pumps have a basin installed under your basement floor. However, unlike sump basins, an ejector basin collects wastewater from the floor drain, washer, basement sinks, and below-grade bathrooms. The pump’s discharge pipe is connected to a sanitary sewer line. On ejector pumps where sewage is also handled, the lid to the basin is kept sealed and a vent pipe safely evacuates sewer gasses.
