I'm laughing...OK, maybe I exagerrated just a bit when I said that I knew very little about UPS. This much..., I did know.

I was hoping someone with some electrical background and experience with UPS's could confirm that this is an appropriate unit for our uses. I've heard some about the different types of power delivered being hard on pumps. If you look at the apcc website, they make many, many models...most of which were designed to power computers, not pumps.
