Signs of a Failing Sump Pump

If you are unsure of whether your sump pump is still a reliable line of defense against flooding, there are a few signs to look out for. No one wants their sump pump to fail during a crisis. Watch out for these common signs that your sump pump is nearing 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.
