Still not sure which model is the right choice? If you need a sump pump with a 1/2 horsepower motor then we recommend the Zoeller model but if you need a lighter model the GOULDS pump is a better option. An ejector pump is a pump that pumps water from the inside of the basement out. It has a drain pipe that brings the water outside. This is what protects the basement from any flooding. The sump pump’s primary role is to pump out the water out of the sump pit. However the Zoeller sump pump is a better value because it is more powerful and has a longer lifespan. What is the difference between sump pump and ejector pump Well, the answer is quite simple.

Zoeller sump pumps are made of a solid cast iron body which makes them resistant to rust and corrosion – while the GOULDS is made of stainless steel.īoth of these sump pumps cost about the same amount. The voltage for both pumps are a standard 120v and they work well throughout the United States.Īnother key difference between these pumps is the body material. Sump pumps help move excess groundwater outside and prevent flooding after a heavy rainstorm. Sewage ejector pumps help remove home sewage wasteboth solid waste and liquid gray watervia your sewer line. You will have to buy those separately which can be an additional cost. The main difference between sewage ejector pumps and sump pumps is the contents they pump. The Zoeller sump pump has a more powerful 1/2 HP motor while the LSP0311AT only has a 1/3 HP motor which means it might not be the right choice for deep basements.īoth the LSP0311AT and the M267 do not comes with any accessories like a backup pump, battery or alarm. An ejector pump is similar to a sump pump except that it is used for sewer water rather than standing water or ground water in a basement.

One of the main difference between the M267 and the LSP0311AT is the pump horsepower. It is lightweight (about 10 pounds) and still has a good flow rate of 57 GPM with a max head height of 34′! Key Differences

With a pedestal pump, the motor is on a shaft above the pump and out of the water. The GOULDS LSP0311AT is a good choice for homeowners that need a powerful motor sump pump that is light enough to move around the home. There are two main types of sumps pumps: pedestal and submersible.
