system with a separate dedicated
discharge line (Method 1), or tied into
an existing sump pump line (Method 2,
page 3).

2. Remove any silt or accumulated
debris from the sump pit and
surrounding area.
Method 1 (Preferred)
1. Locate the BSP25 on a solid, level
surface in the sump pit. Do not
place the pump on a loose or sandy
surface. Small stones or sand may
damage the pump resulting in
potential pump failure.
2. This pump has a 1-1/2 inch NPT
discharge. If a 1-1/4 inch discharge
pipe is desired, an adapter (not
included) will be necessary. Smaller
diameter piping will reduce pump
flow, rate and performance.
3. Cut a 4 foot section of 1-1/4 inch or
1-1/2 inch diameter rigid PVC pipe.
Cement 1-1/2 inch pipe to a
threaded fitting. Cement 1-1/4 inch
pipe into pipe coupling. Attach 1-
1/4 inch pipe section to the BSP25
discharge adapter.
4. Screw on to pump discharge.
