Frequently Asked Questions

How Often Should a Sump Pump Be Replaced?

The typical lifespan of a sump pump is about 7-10 years. Yet, regular maintenance and local environmental factors can influence longevity. In Torrance, being aware of wear and tear due to coastal moisture can prevent failures during wet seasons.

For those in older homes, proactive replacement might be beneficial before issues arise, particularly if there's a history of flooding. Annual inspections and system checks offer insights into your pump's condition, helping predict when a replacement is necessary. Additionally, technological advancements regularly improve efficiency and performance, providing more reasons for upgrades.

What Are the Signs My Sump Pump Needs Replacing?

Indicators that you may need sump pump replacement include unusual noises, continuous running, frequent cycling on and off, or visible moisture in your basement. Contact Zoom Drain of Los Angeles for an assessment if you experience these issues.

Other signs include excessive vibration during operation, motor failure, or noticeable rust and corrosion. If a test reveals that the pump takes a long time to remove water or doesn't switch on automatically, these are strong indicators of potential failure. A professional evaluation can help avert more severe water damage.

Can I Install a Sump Pump Myself?

While DIY installation might be tempting, professional installation is recommended to ensure compliance with local codes and optimal functionality. Our certified technicians handle complex installations safely and efficiently.

Improper installation may lead to decreased performance and increased flood risk. Professional installation ensures the system integrates correctly with your home's infrastructure, particularly drainage and electrical systems. It also provides protection with service warranties, covering unforeseen issues.

What Maintenance Does a Sump Pump Require?

Regular maintenance, including checking the discharge line for obstructions, testing the alarm system, and ensuring the backup battery is charged, helps prolong your pump's life. We offer maintenance packages to keep your system in top condition.

Routine checkups may involve cleaning the pump and pit, ensuring check valve operation, and testing the float switch mechanism. These checks not only extend pump life but also prevent malfunctions causing flooding. Our maintenance packages are customizable, offering bi-yearly or quarterly visits according to your needs. Choosing our team means you gain a partner committed to long-term reliability of your sump pump system, addressing small issues before they become major problems.

Our FAQs

  • To prevent clogs, avoid putting the following down your kitchen sink:

    • Grease, oil, or fat (FOG).
    • Coffee grounds.
    • Eggshells or food scraps.
    • Fibrous vegetables (like celery or corn husks).
    • Pasta, rice, or other starchy foods.
    • Regularly clean drains using a natural drain cleaner like baking soda and vinegar.
    • Install drain screens or traps to catch hair and debris.
    • Avoid flushing non-biodegradable items down the toilet.
    • Be mindful of what you pour down the kitchen sink (e.g., no grease or oils).
    • Have professional inspections performed periodically.
  • A cleanout is a pipe fitting that provides easy access for drain cleaning. If your plumbing system doesn't already have one, Zoom Drain can install a cleanout, which can save you time and money when clearing future blockages.

  • Sewer lining is a trenchless method of repairing damaged pipes by inserting a liner into the existing pipe. The liner hardens into a new pipe, sealing any cracks or leaks. It’s less invasive and often more cost-effective than traditional sewer replacement.

  • Signs that your sewer line may need repair or replacement include:

    • Persistent slow drains or backups.
    • Unpleasant odors coming from your drains.
    • Wet spots or patches of lush greenery in your yard (indicating leaks).
    • Gurgling sounds in your toilet or sinks. Zoom Drain provides comprehensive sewer repair, lining, and replacement services.
  • A malfunctioning sewage pump may show signs like:

    • Sewage backup or slow draining.
    • Foul odors or gurgling noises.
    • Inconsistent or no pump operation. Regular inspections and maintenance can prevent costly failures.
  • Signs of sump pump issues include:

    • Water pooling around the sump pump area.
    • Strange noises when the pump operates.
    • Pump not turning on or off properly.
    • Water not being pumped out effectively. Zoom Drain can inspect and provide repair or replacement services.
  • Jetting from the roof vent involves sending high-pressure water through your drain lines starting from the roof vent, which clears out blockages from the top of the pipes. This technique can reach clogs that are deep within the system, particularly for stubborn, hard-to-reach blockages.

  • Hydrojetting is a technique where high-pressure water is used to clean drains. It’s especially effective for removing grease, debris, and tree roots. This method is ideal for tougher clogs that can't be easily cleared with standard tools.

  • Zoom Drain uses advanced tools like:

    • Hydrojetting machines for powerful, high-pressure water cleaning.
    • Sewer cameras to inspect and locate blockages deep within your pipes.
    • Locators to precisely find and identify issues underground or behind walls.
    • Traditional augers for mechanical drain clearing when necessary.
