  If your Simer Water Pump runs but pumps very little or no water, several issues could be the cause. First, ensure the check valve between the primary pump discharge and the backup pump is correctly installed and functioning. Clean out the anti-airlock hole in the pump body. Check for any obstructions in the discharge pipe. Verify the discharge pipe length or height is within the pump's capacity, consulting Table IV for pumping heights and consider increasing pipe size. Check the battery; a low or defective battery, or reversed positive and negative wires, can also cause this issue. In case of reversed wires, correct the connection.

  If your Simer Water Pump won’t run, there are a few potential reasons: * The float switch might be stuck, preventing it from swinging freely. * There could be a loose electrical connection. * The battery might be defective or have a voltage below 8.2 Volts. Check that the float switch can move without obstruction, inspect all electrical connections, and test the battery to ensure it is functioning correctly and has sufficient voltage.

How to stop my Simer Ace-In-The-Hole A5000-01 Water Pump from cycling too frequently?

  If your Simer Water Pump cycles too frequently, it could be due to a few reasons. The tether length on the automatic float switch might be too short; the correct length is 3-1/2 inches, so adjust accordingly. Another potential cause is an improperly installed or malfunctioning check valve between the primary pump discharge and the backup pump. Ensure it's installed correctly with the arrow pointing up; if backward, replace it. Lastly, excessive water entering the sump pit could be the issue; in this case, it's recommended to call a plumber.

Why won't my Simer Ace-In-The-Hole A5000-01 shut off when the sump is empty?

  If your Simer Water Pump continues to run even when the sump is empty and the float switch is down, it may be due to a defective float switch or control panel. To diagnose, disconnect the float switch from the control panel. If the pump stops, the float switch needs replacement. If it continues running, the control panel should be replaced.
