Basepump Model HB1000-PRO vs The Competition
Because of its higher pumping capacity and included installation parts, there really is no competition to compare it to. No other water powered backup sump pump can match the HB1000-Pro for the full package that is included. This is as close as we could get to a comparison between the RB750-EZ and HB1000-PRO and the closest competition.
* For example: 50-60 Lbs. PSI City water pressure.
** The competition states that you must read their sump water removal chart with “water pressure at pump inlet, with valve open and water flowing.” The pressure drop under these conditions is approximately 20 Lbs. PSI. This means you must read the chart at the 30 Lbs. PSI point rather than at the 50 Lbs. PSI point (50 Lbs. minus 20 Lbs. = 30 Lbs. PSI).
We don’t make that distinction. We require that the installation include no restrictions in the water supply to the pump. If installed correctly, and the water flow rate according to the 5 gallon bucket test we recommend is adequate for the pump selected, then these are the pumping rates you’ll achieve at 10 feet of lift (similar to “head pressure”).
