Re: worth $15?
you probably dont' need such big openings. If it were flooded the water is going to get into the sump even if it creeps in around the edges. maybe a piece of aluminum checkerplate? If you have a scrapyard they likely re-sell stuff like that.

I realized today that I had to add to my "rainy day projects" list getting a work light down there since the fixture above is busted (on the "before fall" shopping list).phil wrote:you probably dont' need such big openings.

There is an old metal drum they used for the pit, then the plastic bucket you see which seems askew. I want to get a better look in there to see how much has built up from the floor seeping in with the water. I'll look into the checkerplate.
