Your Sump Pump Service – Local Plumbing
To maintain a sump pump system, the sump pump and switches should be checked to ensure they’re running smoothly and will not clog. All debris, mud, and sediment that has made its way into the sump pump liner is cleaned out, and your battery backup sump pump is tested for proper charge and voltage. The sump pump alarm’s battery is checked, and a flood test is conducted on the whole system to make sure it’s running properly.
Outside of your home, the discharge line is checked for clogs and potential freezing issues. Any other options installed with your system, such as basement windows, window wells, or downspout extensions, are also inspected and cleaned. Additionally, your serviceman will check for signs of other existing or potential problems and, if necessary, offer solutions so the installation offers proper protection.
A sump pump installation needs to be counted on all the time to keep the basement dry. Having a serviceman keeping it running smoothly is a small price to pay to keep your investment working for you as it should!
Like any mechanical utility within your home, your sump pump can eventually fail. A sump pump contains moving parts that can wear out or malfunction over the years. The best way to make sure your home is protected from a sump pump failure is to make sure that you have a battery backup pump and secondary sump pump ready to operate in an emergency.
