Quick Question About Your Sump Cover

Hi,

As we get closer to launching the Basement Beacon, we are working through some of the final design details.

One thing we'd like to better understand is the variety of sump basin covers homeowners have. The Basement Beacon water level probe hangs into the sump basin, which may require a small hole to be drilled in the cover depending on your setup.

Could you take 60 seconds to answer a few quick questions? We're especially interested in learning what materials your sump basin cover is made from and how comfortable you'd be drilling a 1-inch hole if needed.

Thank you for helping shape the Basement Beacon. Your feedback has been incredibly valuable throughout this process, and we're excited to share more progress updates soon.

Best regards,

Tony
