I'd rather be able to shower with no power tbh..specifically opted for at.ospheric for that reason. Much cheaper to buy upfront and works in the event of big storms etc.. tankless can suck my dirty nuts but I see the appeal, kinda..

That's... what?
In my home there aren't any pumps.
Water comes in, under pressure, from the city to my water outlets around the house.
Waste water goes down a drain and out into the cities sewage system completely by gravity.

I don't have a basement.
I have a crawlspace, the plumbing is all in the crawlspace.
Water doesn't need to be pumped up from the crawlspace because the lines are under pressure from the city main.
Now, if the city water distribution system was down I wouldn't have fresh water, but there are zero water pumps in my home.
As for sewage, the sewer lines are below all my plumbing, so gravity is enough to drain them.

I have a basement...I can and do shower in my basement. No weird pumps required and I can disconnect the house from the main and still have hot water.
It's specific to your area where this weird ass pump is required.
