Basementsaver WP3 / Basepump CB1500 Size 3 Commercial-Grade Backup Sump Pump Is Designed For Commercial Basements With High Sump Flow Rates
Size 3 Commercial Pumps
The Basementsaver WP3 / Basepump CB1500 is the larget, most powerful, commercial-rated water powered backup pump model available. These pumps can provide 2,000gph maximum pumping capacity through a 10ft lift at 90psi city water pressure.
This size of pump is designed for application in large commercial basements, with high sump flow rates, that can provide a city water supply at a pressure in the range 40-90psi.
The WP3 / CB1500 pump will operate in your basement if your outside standard hose spigot can supply water at a sufficient flow rate to fill a bucket to the 5 gallon level in 20 seconds or less (allow 25% longer for a frost-proof spigot).
