No hot water, flooded basement, water heater pilot/flame submerged. Sump pump broken.

Hardware store in town will let us buy one over the phone then they put it outside the store door for pick up.

Got new pump. New pump is bad, blowing water out the side of the housing.

Furnace on a platform is only a couple inches under water but still running. Will be blowing water through the fan shortly if rain and ground seepage doesnt slow or stop.

Supposed to be in 30s tonight and tomorrow night. Can't get new pump until tomorrow.

Time for a smoke and a cold shower.
you can seal the side of the housing with super glue duct tape and a bike inner tube.

If I may? Brand new. Warranty. Paid for new.
These are ducked up times man. If they even have another pump he can’t get it until tomorrow and if his fan for his furnace will be blowing water soon I would consider modifying the thing and just eating the cost so it doesn’t destroy my furnace just my .02 cents
I also agree that that pump should’ve come in 100% working order
