What Is a Sump Pump?

Sump pumps are designed to fit in pits dug out in low areas of your home — most commonly crawl spaces and basements — and are utilized to prevent flooding during storms. They typically rest on standby; when heavy rainfall saturates the soil, excess water will fill up the pit, and the sump pump can then filter the water to the nearest storm drain.

Do I Need a Sump Pump?

A good rule of thumb is that if you’ve got a structure underneath the ground, you should have a sump pump. Crawl spaces and underground basements are highly susceptible to flooding, especially in wetter climates; if your home has one or both, ensure it’s protected with a sump pump!

Pedestal Pump vs. Submersible Unit

When looking into a new sump pump installation, it’s best to weigh out the pros and cons of both options beforehand.

Pedestal Pump

  • The motor is featured on a pedestal above the tank
  • The water is pumped at a slower rate
  • The pump can’t be submerged fully
  • Ideal for homes that only require sump pumps for emergencies

Submersible Unit

  • It can be fully submerged
  • Pumps water at a higher rate than its pedestal pump counterpart
  • Durable and long-lasting
  • Great for homes that rely on sump pumps more frequently

Life Span of Sumps Pumps: Benefits of Routine Maintenance

Typically, sump pumps last for roughly a decade. If it doesn’t seem to be working as it should, it’s a good idea to have it replaced before a big storm hits to avoid flooding and potential damage to your property! Regular maintenance will keep all your unit’s components in check, ultimately helping to prevent the need for repair or replacement. It’s also a great way to spot issues early so replacements can be scheduled ASAP.

FAQs

Sump pits can usually hold anywhere from 15 to 20 gallons of water to 25 gallons of water.

This depends on the type of system you have. If it’s electric, it will have a battery pack that enables it to turn on automatically when excessive water is present. If it’s manual, you will have to turn the system on yourself for it to operate.
