## Overview

The Basement WATCHDOG BWSS100 is a robust 1 HP submersible sump pump engineered for high-efficiency water removal with a max flow of 6,540 GPH at zero lift and 4,400 GPH at 10 ft. lift. Its rugged cast iron and stainless steel build ensures durability, while the innovative caged dual float switch system provides reliable, automatic activation and debris protection. Designed for professionals and homeowners who demand dependable flood prevention, this pump offers peace of mind during heavy rains and flooding events.

## Description

The Basement Watchdog 1 HP submersible sump pump features a powerful and energy efficient permanent split capacitor (PSC) motor providing 4,400 GPH output at 10 ft. lift (6,540 GPH at 0 ft. lift). The cast iron/stainless steel construction along with dual ball bearings and dual shaft seals protect the motor for years of service. The caged Dual Float Switch and Controller will automatically activate the pump when rising water lifts either float by 1/4 in. Once the float drops to the original position, the controller will keep the pump running for an additional 10 seconds to completely drain the sump pit. The protective float switch cage prevents debris or other wires from interfering with the floats. The vented and curved bottom prevents debris from building up under the primary float. The float switch is easy to install and can be adjusted to any level.

Review: Highly suggest having the 2” pvc out if possible. This is a monster of a sump pump! It does kinda sound like a toilet flushing when it drains our our, but I don’t mind because I know it’s working ;) this has kept up and kept the water off the basement floor through some really heavy rains for days in a row! Worth every penny so far!
Review: Solid pump and easy to install. Works well.

**Q: Is this rated for continuous running?**

**Q: isi this pump and switch a nightmare, junk? what pump is adjustable and quality**
A: This pump is outstanding. We have had heavy rains and it clears the sump with ease. It is certainly noticeable when it turns on - and it turns on often when there is a lot of rain - so we always know when it is running.
