Water backs up in the floor drain during heavy downpour even thou

im not sure that the patio would have much effect on flooding in the basement
hi precipitation this year and a higher than normal water table which is the lvel below ground that if you dig into starts to fill with water.

your problem is more likely a drainage issue are there any sump pumps in your basement or does it at least have a floor drain if so perhaps there is a clog

call a plumber and the patio contractor and have a professional determine the reason for the flooding

ps you can purchase portable sump pumps you can set on a flooded floor and plug in and they will pump out water when the floor floods automatically

Is this a new fault or has it always done this? What's the water stream like while pumping out, but before the spin cycle? Noticed any changes? Can you tell if the pump is still working during the spin cycle (hard to tell by listening but try). It should still be pumping during the spin cycle. Sadly for you, reviews of this model are not too complimentary, and help requests cover a variety of faults. Looks like it may be a bit of a lemon.

If the pump is still running during spin, a possible (likely?) fault cause is a damaged impeller, which would make it pump adequately during the main drain cycle, but lose pumping ability rapidly as soon as there was not much more water to pump, and the backflow leakage rate equalled the rate of water collection at the pump inlet. As well, in that scenario, any water still in the drain line would flow back into the drum as soon as the cycle finished.

pull the foot valve as it takes very little to allow the water to drain back out. Personally I would replace all pipes in the hole with heavy duty /high pressure plastic agricultural irrigation pipes

When you say ices up do you mean the line ices up back to the compressor. is water overflowing over sump tray? or is it dumping out drain? If you are not getting water over the evaporator plate then it will frost up the evaporator plat all the way back to the compressor.if the water is dumping into the drain during freeze cycle check the dump valve this will not let sump tray stay full of water. make sure water filter is good as this will not let sump tray stay full fast enough. is water pump pumping water over the evap plate?

The hose attachment is used in place of the water collection bucket, to drain the water directly into a floor drain or a sump pump holding tank. A garden hose is connected to the "hose attachment" and run to the floor drain or sump pump holding tank. However, it will not drain UP, only DOWN.

Hope this helped.

That's the idea; if you lift the float the water starts pumping because it works off of that float. That type of pump is usually meant for water that is in a tub or bucket, so that when the water reaches a certain height and causes the float to rise allowing the pump to kick on. I use a pump like that to pump our the drained water from my washing machine in my basement, i let the water go into a big 50 gallon drum and then once the drum is half full i have it set so the float rises and pumps out the water. That being said, if you are putting this in your basement at floor level, you would need to get a 10 gallon bucket meant for sump pumps (you can get one at your local home store) and rent a jackhammer if your basement is concrete and put the bucket in the floor and the sump pump in the bucket, this is called a sump pit. Another option is to get whats often called a "floor ******" pump. Its a pump that sucks the water out when it reaches around a half inch of depth and it can be used in several feet of water (I've used these as well, there is no float involved), and it can be set on level ground there is no sump pit needed. The one thing with my pump you may not want, is that it's constantly running because its constantly monitoring for water so that a lot of water will not build up (especially if water can damage some thing in the surrounding area) . You can check out all the types at your local home store.
