FAQs
1. What does a sump pump do?
A sump pump prevents basement and crawlspace flooding by collecting excess groundwater and pumping it away from your home’s foundation.
2. Why is a battery backup system important for sump pumps?
Backup systems automatically activate during power outages, pump failures, or when water flow exceeds the main pump’s capacity—helping you avoid costly flooding.
3. How often should I check my sump pump?
It’s recommended to test your sump pump at least once every 3–4 months and have it inspected annually by a professional to ensure it’s working properly.
4. What are the signs that my sump pump might fail?
Warning signs include unusual noises, irregular cycling, continuous running, rust, or water pooling in the sump pit even when the pump should be working.
