What Is a Sewage Ejector Pump?
A sewage ejector pump collects waste from fixtures like toilets and sinks installed below the main sewer line, pumping the waste high enough so that gravity can carry it safely into the sewer system and away from the home. They have:
- A basin that collects the waste
- An impeller that draws in the waste
- A powerful motor that pumps the waste up to your sewer line

Ejector Pump FAQs
Do I need a sewage ejector pump?
A sewage ejector pump is generally needed anywhere that sewage must travel uphill to be disposed of. Your home will need an ejector pump if:
- You have toilets, sinks, bathtubs, or floor drains below the main sewer line.
- Your main sewer line is physically lower than the municipal sewer line.
What are the benefits of installing a sewage ejector pump?
A sewage ejector pump lets you add toilets, sinks, and other plumbing fixtures to areas that would be impossible otherwise. It can get rid of waste efficiently, pumping up to 200 gallons of wastewater a minute, and it warns you if there is a malfunction with the system, preventing sewer backups.
What's the difference between a sewage ejector pump and a sump pump?
A sump pump is designed to get rid of groundwater that seeps into a crawl space, and it pumps relatively clean or slightly silty water.
A sewage ejector pump, while similar to a sump pump, is designed strictly to pump wastewater and sewage, which requires a stronger pump.
Both use a basin to collect the water and a float switch to turn the pump on and off.
