Star Water Systems 135267 Sump Pump Float Rod 25 Inch

Product Description

The STAR WATER SYSTEMS 135267 is a replacement float rod designed for pedestal-type sump pumps. Measuring 25 inches in length and 0.25 inches in diameter, this rod connects the float to the pump switch mechanism, allowing the pump to cycle on and off based on water level. One end is threaded for secure attachment to the float or switch assembly. Licensed plumbers and pump service technicians install this part as a direct drop-in replacement when the original rod becomes corroded, bent, or otherwise damaged. Its straightforward design keeps installation time low and reduces pump downtime in residential sump pit applications.

This float rod is intended for pedestal-style sump pump installations, where the motor sits above the sump pit on a pedestal and the float hangs in the pit on a rod. This configuration is common in residential basements and crawl spaces with moderate water intrusion. When the water level rises, the float lifts along the rod and triggers the switch to activate the pump. The 135267 restores correct float travel and switch operation when the original rod fails or is missing.

Key Features

• 25-inch length suits standard pedestal sump pump pit depths
• 0.25-inch diameter rod provides rigid, consistent float travel
• Threaded on one end for secure attachment to float or switch assembly

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement float rod for pedestal-type sump pumps. Verify thread size and rod diameter against your existing hardware before installation.

Installation Notes

Disconnect power to the sump pump at the circuit breaker before beginning any service work. A licensed plumber or qualified pump technician should perform the replacement. Remove the damaged or worn rod by disconnecting it from the float and switch assembly, then thread the new rod into place and confirm the float moves freely through its full range of travel. Restore power only after all connections are secure and the pit cover is in place.
