I have a rather unique problem/question. I would like to install a floor drain into my basement of a 1950's cape. I DO NOT have any plumbing under the floor; the house was moved from septic to sewer before we bought it and the main is about 16" off the floor. We also DO NOT get any water into our basement so we have no need for a sump pit.
What I aim to do is dig a hole and seal the pit into the floor so we get no ingress of water from outside. Drains can empty into this basin and then get sump pumped up and into sewer line.
I was looking for a pre-made basin to use but have found nothing and was wondering if anyone had comments or experience iwth this type of issue before I jack hammer the floor
