I installed a 3700 gph pump high up in the bilge with it’s own audible alarm. It has its own discharge hose running to the stern (with a 2 foot head and appropriate back flow arresters installed.) My other pump, the diaphragm pump that came with the boat is loud enough to wake the world when it turn on so, no audible alarm on that one. I keep a dry bilge as well, other than testing the pumps every once in a while so that I know they work. I don’t have a counter nor am I connected with WiFi. I’ve thought that would be nice but I’m down to the boat pretty much every day and so if there’s any residual water in the bilge, I’ll know I’ve got an issue.
