Utility sink install with Sump pump help

[carson45]

Hello, I am wanting to install a utility sink in my basement that will need a pump to get the drain water up to my drainage pipes. The pump I want to get is the Liberty 404. The pump has a drain pipe and a vent pipe. I am trying to figure out where exactly to tie both of those into in my existing plumbing. I took a short video of my plumbing at my house if someone can help me. Thanks!!

tie into the 3'' line , but you must, tie in with a wye. and the wye must be on its back. pointed up. not on its side or pointed down.

i hate them but use a studer vent / auto vent if they are legal in your area


nice box, did you make it ?

a studor vent should never be used in a sealed pit.

you are correct

Thanks for the replies. So I was doing some more research and found a pump that screws in directly below a drain on a sink and it doesn't need a vent. I think I will go that route since I'm very new to all of this. Any issues with those pumps that I should be aware of?

Here's the pump:

I have a neighbor that makes things out of wood, that's where I got it.

Thanks again

So the drain pipe coming out of the pump will be 1". Whats the best way to get it into the main 3" drain?

Probably a 3x1-1/2 wye and a bushing.

I guess I should of measured. That pipe that Frodo has in his post is the pipe Im going to tie into and no way its 3". The circumference of the pipe is way under 9". Guess its a 2" pipe

Not sure what code you are under but where I'm at, it doesn't matter that it's on a lift pump, all fixtures must be properly vented, and the sump vent itself cannot share a vent with another fixture.

hard for us to distinguish between 2 and 3 '' on a screen
we rely on you to tell us the diameter of pipes

That pump setup won't meet plumbing code. Traps are required by plumbing code, that doesn't have one.
You should get a proffesional plumber to do this project and rather than putting your families health at risk.

I have ran the vent pipe outside and some plumbers take the vent and elbow them right into the sink
