Ejection Pump
I currently have an ejection and sump pump in my basement. The sump pump very seldom comes on. The ejection pump comes on about every 5-6 minutes. I was wondering if it is time to replace that ejection pump and with what kind? Thanks for your help.

I think you must mean an ejector pump. Ejector's are usually used when the water has some solids in it. They are designed to handle dirtier water than a regular sump pump.
There must be somewthing flowing into the ejector pit that keeps making the pump come on.
Tell us a little more about it and maybe we can give you some ideas. Otherwise, it sounds like the pump is working fine.
