I bought this to go with the Liberty 257 Sump Pump - how does this install on the pump? Doesn't want to fit on properly.

It does not go on the pump. It goes on the plastic pipe that exhausts the water.The flapper is designed to open when the water is ejected from the pump and to close to prevent the water from back flowing when the pump stops. The check valve fits between 2 sections of plastic pipe that exhausts the water

Doesn't go directly on the pump. You will need a couple of feet of pvc pipe that inserts into the pump(plus adapter) and then the check valve goes on top of the pvc pipe. The instructions for the pump should have a diagram.

install a short section of pvc from discharge side of pump in to the check valve inlet side and then install the discharge to the other end of the check ,make sure the arrow points to the direction of discharge! make sure you tighten the clamps around both ends of the check valve!

The check valve needs to be placed on the discharge PVC pipe (with a male adaptor that threads into the threaded pump discharge) and located above the top of the pump.

Its a pain, thought it would've fit better. I own a jeep wrangler 2 door, so it may or may not fit better in your liberty. I would probly try to steer you away from buying this product. Hope my response helps!

On the pump I had to take the old and new pump apart at the impeller housing to make it work. I had to use the old impeller housing on the new pump. I tried swapping the mounting bracket on the pump but bolt holes did not line up. Vern

I have two inch PVC coming out of the sump, ( I ain't gonna lift the lid and peek) so I'll go with that. A bell adapter or bushing two x 1-1/2 can be installed to either step up the size or step down .Phil

The other end of the detergent tube goes to a "small grease fitting like" fitting on the top of the brass high pressure pump. The detergent tube should just slide onto the fitting and fit snugly.

Am sorry, my pump is a different model; however, it could still possibly fit yours. Wish I could help.

The pressure rating far exceeds your pump. The connector is standard. At worst you would have to add an adaptor.

The plastic cover has 2 plastic arms/clips that fit around the pump motor. While these accommodated the diameter of my pump (5.8"), the sides of the cover bulged outward. This poor fit and the vibration of the motor/pump would cause the cover to frequently make noise and require some fiddling to make it stop.

Yes it will, It's the correct pump. Do yourself a favor, Buy 4 socket head allan type screws to replace the included ones. (buy stainless) The 2 lower screws are a pAin to install. With a socket head screw so the wrench doesn't slip off it is way easier. Also there is a small bump on the housing to get the ports aligned. Make sure it is in the notch. Don't force the housing into the base. If you need a new pump you probably need a new joker valve also. Sold separately. Sry.

I had the same thing also. The check valve i got from lowes was not good. There is one on here, I think its called the Quiet check Valve. Its clear and white. I added that and i done even hear my pump run. I had to go down to listen and make sure it worked. No thud or gurgling. Great addon. Also its clear so you can see what the check valve is doing. I love my liberty pump with the valve i was walking about.

I remember reading on the PP website that they don't fit the Hygeia, but I seem to remember using them with my Enjoye anyway. Wasn't an issue. Of course, depending on the pump, you can either fit them directly into the connectors or into the shields (that are in the connectors) that come with the pump.

Jake if you have room I would install it at the bottom of the sump by your main one due to the float switch that comes with this unit is timed to run so many seconds which basically is a full sump,that's by design.

I have the elongated model. I think you should call the professional installer. He or she needs to come tighten something before it leaks.

Should work on either depending on your style of mounting. Mine was vertical. Bolts up through the motor holes. My original pump was not as thick. I needed longer bolts

This doesn't connect to your pump or filter section. This hangs over the side of the pool. The instruction say to place in near the intake of the pool but I placed it close to where the water exits from the pimp and it works fine. Regarding the problem with the plug, I didn't have any issues with the plugs. The installation was quick and easy.

Hello RonaldThe Graf pump I received had a very snug gasket. It was over a month ago that I replaced this, but it fit perfect and have no issues with it currently. Recommend calling the mfg if possible to see about getting a better gasket. You want that to be snug. Or returning it for another. Did yours have the cardboard sheath over it to protect the impeller

it sounds like the water is puming out to fast for the water coming in. the pump is probably too big for your application. try reducing the outlet hose size to about 3/4" instead of the 1 1/4" it is set up for. if the float had about 8" of travel instead of 3" you would be fine. my pump works fine for me, i am happy with it.
