Benefits of A Sump Pump
A sump pump offers many benefits, including:
- Helps prevent basement flooding
- Pumps water away from your home
- Increases property value
- Reduces humidity levels
- Prevents termite infestations
- Protects home from mold and mildew in the basement
Sump Pump Drainage
Your sump pump water will discharge to a creek, pond, neighborhood drain, or well. It’s important not to set your drain point anywhere that will return to your home. You may also need to attach a drainage hose or increase the power of your sump pump if it is not adequately draining.
Why Do Sump Pumps Fail
A sump pump’s life cycle is usually between seven and ten years. They can fail due to their lifespan, installation failure, or machine failure. It’s critical to get a professional to install your sump pump to ensure improper installation won’t lead to costly floods. Sump pump errors can sometimes result in the pump’s switches getting stuck or continuously cycling.
Signs You Need A Sump Pump Replacement
The most common signs that indicate you may need a sump pump replacement include:
- Cycling On And Off Frequently – The basin of your sump pump may be too small to handle the amount of water in your basement. When your sump pump overworks, the motor starts to burn out.
- Constantly Running – Your sump pump may run for minutes at a time, indicating the pump doesn’t have enough power for the volume of water in your basement. The pump is forced to constantly run to handle the distance needed to pump out the water.
- Strange Noises – If your sump pump sounds like anything other than a hum, it could be caused by failing parts. Your motor may make weird noises due to a jammed impeller as well.
- Not Turning On – The sump pump’s job is to remove water accumulation. If you notice pooling water, it is not working correctly.
