Fuck Zoeller. Float switch failed after 3 years. Multiple alarms went off, thankfully I had installed multiple warning alarms. Installed a Liberty snd its been running since 2018 with zero issues.

[@badtothebone346]

My zoeller lasted 14 years. I live in the Midwest, so it only gets used when it rains and a few days after that. I wouldn't call it high usage. I replaced it with another zoeller and have another one for backup just in case.

Thanks Ben

Any time!

The switches on this submersible is garbage. When I had french drain installed around five years ago, they installed two of these pumps in opposite corners of the basement. So far the switches have failed at least 3 to 4 times, and every time, the plumber insists the entire pump must be replaced, (and refuses to repair the switch). None of this has been covered under warrenty, and I am 100% fed up with submersible pumps. I had a pedistal pump that lasted 20 years, with no issues.

bought m53 in 2017, the float switch failed flooding the basement in 2022, replaced with another m53 and it just failed again; the float switch again. Total crap!

[@nickf2170]

@@mikeclasenii6567 Look into a piggyback float switch. Look up SJE pumpmaster pump switch 15PMD1WP. This effective bypasses the pumps crappy switch, with a hopefully better switch and this has a 5 year warrenty. Good luck.

@@mikeclasenii6567 This review is just a sales pitch type review - agree the switches on these are garbage as many other blogs/reviews state.

just bought a 1/2 hp Zoeller from a Lowe's in Phiadelphia. Home Depot didn't sell them, but I didn't have to go through Ferguson that's for sure. I prefer US supply as a plumber

[@RescuePlumbing]

Yes Ferguson is pretty expensive. We have always only shopped with them for water heaters and pumps. I met with my sales rep and his boss about two weeks ago and they lowered my pricing dramatically on PVC so I will start shopping with them for PVC on my next order. All the supply houses are automating to robots and counterless supply houses. HD supply owned by home depot that used to be Barnett closed the counter and only does deliveries now. I have never heard of US supply they are not out here.

I had a switch fail after 1.5 years

[@RescuePlumbing]

You are not the first person to tell me this. I am sorry your switch failed but I install at least 20 a month and I have no customers calling me back to say they have failed. I give a full year warranty parts and labor. Zoeller warranties all pumps for 3 years and the m63 sump they warranty 5 years. In five years I have returned to Ferguson Plumbing supply 4 times all ejector pumps m267's. And it was not the switch something burned the pump out. They refunded my account. They have to have upgraded the switch I have no problems. Zoeller brags about their switch rated at 10,000. How long ago was that pump failure?

[@ninjarider443]

@@RescuePlumbing I use a Liberty with an electronic switch versus going with this method as so many reviews over the last few years i read say they fail.

[@Qpoueoor]

Have they fixed the P O S switch yet? It’s a steaming pile of S. The pump is excellent. The switch is a POS.

[@Sparkygamer5231]

The switch is actually not the problem. The problem is water is leaking into that top part of the pump and frying the switch. That’s why when I buy a new pump. I put silicone around the gasget and cord

[@RescuePlumbing]

I have installed thousands of these myself and have never had a switch go bad on install. After install though I have had a few go bad but very few. I think I return to the supplier maybe 1-2 pumps a year if that. We install 300-500 pumps a year. I thinks that is a good ration.

[@RescuePlumbing]

This is not the first time I have heard this from other plumbers. I am going to have to send a group text to the guys today to apply silicone on all pumps wires now! Thanks@@Sparkygamer5231

[@lordcommander3224]

I wonder if it matters if the pump sits up off the bottom so its not submersed in water all the time.

[@ninjarider443]

100% true - and if the switch fails it floods your basement and causes thousands of dollars of issues. This review is just a sales pitch - waste of time watching since to many failures on these things say this guy is wrong.
