INSTALLATION
BEFORE INSTALLING THE PUMPSPY SUMP PUMP
SMART OUTLET, VERIFY THAT YOUR SUMP PUMP
IS IN GOOD WORKING CONDITION! REPLACE IF
NECESSARY!
1. CONNECT THE SMART OUTLET TO YOUR WI-FI
NETWORK AND INSTALL THE PUMPSPY APP ON
YOUR DEVICE. SEE ENCLOSED CONNECTION
GUIDE.
2. UNPLUG YOUR SUMP PUMP AND ANY OTHER
CORDS FROM THE WALL A/C OUTLET
3. PLUG THE SMART OUTLET INTO WALL A/C
OUTLET
A. PumpSpy recommends removing the outlet cover screw and
then securing the Smart Outlet to the power outlet with the
included mounting screw. If removing the screw is not possible
or desired, make sure the outlet is rmly plugged into the power
outlet and is ush as possible with the wall.
B. The PumpSpy Smart Outlet is not designed to be used
with extension cords or power strips. If you have multiple
devices that require the use of a power strip, a power strip
can be connected to the lower plug outlet on the Smart Outlet.
4. CONNECT OTHER DEVICES TO THE LOWER
STANDARD OUTLET, IF APPLICABLE.
5. INSTALL THE HIGH WATER SENSOR,
CLAMPING TO THE DISCHARGE PIPE OF YOUR
SUMP PUMP.
A. Adjust the position of the mounting bracket so the high
water sensor does not interfere with the operation of the
main sump pump switch.
B. Adjust the height of the mounting bracket so the high
water sensor is activated when the water level reaches
approx. 1” higher than the “on” level of your main sump
pump.
C. If you have a secondary sump pump/battery backup pump,
make sure the high water sensor is activated BETWEEN the
“on” level of the main sump pump and the “on” level of the
secondary/backup pump.
PUMPSPY HIGHLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU ALWAYS
HAVE 2 WORKING SUMP PUMPS INSTALLED IN YOUR
HOME, ONE OF WHICH CAN OPERATE IN THE EVENT
OF A POWER OUTAGE. THE PUMPSPY SUMP PUMP
SMART OUTLET WILL NOT OPERATE YOUR SUMP PUMP
IN THE EVENT OF A POWER OUTAGE. ALTHOUGH
PUMPSPY WILL SEND YOU ALERTS WHEN YOUR PUMP
HAS AN ISSUE, WE RECOMMEND HAVING A BACKUP
PUMP THAT CAN TAKE OVER PUMPING DUTY UNTIL
REPAIRS CAN BE COMPLETED.
The High Water Sensor
be mounted
1
” higher than
the “on” level of
main sump pump
