Plumber for Fish Room Floor Drain

[cdamiano]

I am looking to have a drain installed in my fish room in my basement. It's going to involve creating a hole in the cement floor of the basement for a pump and whatever plumbing is needed for it. Does anyone know someone who I can get an estimate for this type of job?

Thanks!

Chris, Make sure that if you are going to be draining saltwater the pump is built for a marine or chemical application. Otherwise it wont last long. Also if you can get a float switch that is seal in the ball(float) you'll have less problems with it getting stuck.

Haha. I'm getting tired of cleaning up messes caused by my stupidity. :headwally: Also, we are looking to finish our basement and I don't want to have to worry about damaging anything after it is finished.

It's more for emergency purposes....not for an everyday type of use. But I guess it should be some type of pump that will hold up under those conditions. That has me thinking......I wonder what type of pump is being used with my slop sink sump pump setup. That one is used to pump water out from my water changes. :hmm3:
