OK I have never had a sump, or designed one before, as you can tell. From what I can see on the sequence website, these pumps are not designed to suck, only push. This problem could be bridged by priming the line, but if I had a power failure, my cpr overflow would start up, but the reflo would not! So it looks like placing the pump above the sump is out of the picture.

Albert, we looked at another pomp, that was pressue rated, so i could possibly move my sump to the basement at a later time, but I forget what kind this was. Could you refresh my memory? can this pump suck/pull water?

I guess an internal pump may end up being the solution. Too bad , these reeflo pumps seem like a really good buy!
