Signs of a Failing Sump Pump
There are a few warning indicators to watch out for if you're unsure whether
your sump pump is still a dependable first line of defense against flooding.
Nobody wants their sump pump to go down in a time of need. Keep an eye
out for these typical indicators that your sump pump is getting close
to the end of its useful life.
-
Loud Noises: If the motor is beginning to whine loudly, this is likely a sign that it
will not last much longer.
-
Vibrations: If the unit has a damaged impeller, it will rattle and make loud noises
as the fan blades attempt to empty the water out of the basin.
-
Clogs & Frozen Lines: Clogged discharge lines can inflict severe damage quickly by overworking
the motor and potentially burning it out.
-
Running Sporadically: Something may be wrong with the wiring in your unit if it is turning on
and off without clear reasons. This can also indicate that your unit is
too weak in terms of horsepower to empty the basin.
-
Unit Is 7 Years or Older: Older sump pumps will work harder to empty the basin until they run non-stop
and the motor burns out.

In order to allow waste to naturally travel through your pipes, sewer pumps

ejector pumps aren't working anymore.
The ejector pumps may stop operating if the incorrect pump is installed.
Our professionals can help you choose a pump and make sure it works as
intended. Sewage pumping systems have been put in for basements and other
low-lying structures.
Sewage Grinder Pump Replacement
Sewage grinder pumps remove garbage by cleaning wastewater before it enters
the main sewer. Grinder pumps are typically situated outdoors, although
they can occasionally be constructed inside. The devices typically run
for about one and three minutes at a time. If your pump is operating longer
than usual, it could need to be repaired.
