Yes, we do have a sump pump, so it should be a relatively easy install. The floating mechanism works but is no longer triggering the on switch. The unit's 20 years old. I'm planning to have a new one installed and am thinking about having a marine battery installed as well as a power back up. Yesterday's company quoted me about $750.

I'm also going to call our plumber and get a quote from him.
