It is sad that the subjects of predestination and election are a stumbling block for many believers.
1 An average sump pump (pedestal or submersible) for a typical home runs about $100-$300 depending on the horsepower, materials (plastic is less expensive than cast iron or stainless steel), flow rate and the height the water needs to be lifted to discharge it. A submersible sump pump costs more and only lasts 5-15 years, but is typically quieter and less obtrusive than a pedestal model. 2  Both types of sump pumps range in horsepower from a quarter to 1HP; a 1/3HP sump pump is standard for most homes.
Factor #2: Quality and Type of Sump Pump. There are basically two types of sump pumps: pedestal sump pumps and submersible sump pumps. Pedestal pumps are generally less expensive than submersible pumps. A typical half-horsepower pedestal plastic pump costs between $150 and $170. For example, a plastic-cased Wayne Spv-800 Â½-horsepower pedestal sump pump costs $160 on Amazon.com. In comparison, a submersible pump of similar power costs about $320. Pumps with a metal casing may cost up to double the price of a similar pump without the casing.
