Check Sump Pump Remotely

Can I use a wireless sensors to monitor my sump pump? I’d really like to check on this remotely when I’m away for extended periods.

Are you opposed to using a water bug style sensor and just detecting when water rises to the floor next to the sump pump?

It’s not nearly as MacGyver as some options, but it’s easy to set up and won’t wake you up in the middle of the night unless there’s a real problem.
