Product QuestionsAnswered by Jim, the Sump Pump Expert
Will this pump work in a system similar to the Bur Cam Easy Flush, just made by a different company?

Answer
Unfortunately, I cannot make any guarantees Brian. These systems are typically designed with specific pump and switching characteristics and are typically brand specific. Once the pump is installed, it cannot be returned if it doesn't work in your system.

If purchasing the 400500e sewage pump, what would be the type and quantity of oil that would need to be maintained? How often would I have to check it? Also what is the normal life expectancy if used on a daily bases

Answer
You could use SAE 30 non detergent oil. It should be filled to about ½ inch of the top, however this pump comes already fill with oil. The only time you would need to check the oil level would be if for some reason the float mechanism gets caught up and the pump runs for an extended time. It would then be good to check the oil level in the pump as well as the basin to see if some oil is present. You should expect this pump to last you a good 5-7 years or more with proper care and maintenance.

I have ordered a Bur-Cam 1/2 HP Heavy Duty Sewage Pump Replacement For Easy Flush System (450475). Can I install it in a

Answer
While this pump will fit in a standard basin, it will not operate correctly due to the short cycle switch design.
