Systems for monitoring a sump pump are provided. A system includes a power adapter designed to receive power from a power source. The power adapter is provided in the form of a controller establishing a wireless connection a wireless network and a housing having a first receptacle and a second receptacle. The first receptacle and the second receptacle are designed to accept a float-switch input and a sump pump input, respectively. The float-switch input and the sump pump input are electrically coupled to controller and the power source when accepted by the first receptacle and the second receptacle, respectively.

Systems and methods for a connected sump pump

Systems and methods for monitoring operation of a sump pump are provided. A method includes connecting a power adapter to the sump pump and a float-switch. The power adapter includes a controller positioned within a housing, prongs in communication with components coupled to the controller, a first receptacle and a second receptacle. The controller is configured to establish a wireless connection to a first wireless network, and transmit a message to a remote server over the first wireless network. The controller is further configured to determine a power status of a float switch and control the pump based on power status of the float switch.

Systems and methods for monitoring operation of a sump pump are provided. A method includes connecting a power adapter to the sump pump and a float-switch. The power adapter includes a printed circuit board (PCB) positioned within a housing, a power supply in electrical communication with components coupled to the PCB, and an integrated chip coupled to the PCB. The integrated chip is configured to establish a wireless connection to a first wireless network, and transmit a message to a remote server over the first wireless network. The method further includes causing an internet enabled device to send one or more instructions that causes the power adapter to connect to the first wireless network, and receiving, using the internet enabled device, a message from the remote server.
