Abstract

A system and method for remotely monitoring a sump pump system are disclosed. The sump pump system comprises a control system connected to an integrated arrangement of a sensor chamber and a sump pump. The sensor chamber includes a pressure sensor and a capacitive touch sensor for measuring the water level to automatically turn the sump pump on when the water rises to a preset level. A wireless controller is connected to the system, for wirelessly receiving monitoring instructions and wirelessly transmitting sump pump status data to a remote device. Further, a user can configure a water-attribute value by using an application in the remote device. The user can operate and manage sump pump data via the application.
