Signs That You Need Sump Pump Repair or Replacement

If the sump pump doesn’t turn on when it’s needed, it’s likely burnt out and will need to be replaced. Burnout can occur when the sump pump is not sufficient for the amount of water or due to disrepair.

Is the power flickering or going out every time the sump pump comes on? If it’s causing the power to fluctuate or turn off, it may not be receiving enough power. This could mean upgrading the electrical panel or checking for frayed or damaged wiring.

If the sump pump is backed up and not moving water the way it should, it could be a sign that the intake is clogged. A professional repair will get it working again in no time.

If water isn’t being removed from the basement fast enough, it’s a sign that the sump pump just can’t keep up with the work. This may be because the sump pump isn’t big enough for the amount of water it needs to move. A replacement may be needed.

Sump pumps can suffer from clogged or frozen discharge lines. If the sump pump is on and operating, but no water is coming out, the discharge pipe may need to be cleaned out.

If your sump pump is making unusual or loud noises.

What to Know Before Sump Pump Replacement

Sump pumps come in two main options: pedestal pumps or submersible sump pumps.

Pedestal pumps are above the pit, so they’re easily accessible if needed. Pedestal sump pumps are easier to service, but are going to be visible in the room. These aren’t always as effective, since they do sit above the waterline.

Submersible sump pumps sit in the basin and are underwater, making them more effective at removing water. Though they may be more difficult to service, submersible pumps are not visible. This means they won’t detract from the overall look of a finished basement or get in the way at all.

When the rainy season hits and the municipal storm drain overflows, water flows can cause basement flooding. With a high-horsepower sump pump, you can keep up with flooding issues. Aquarius Home Services offers 1/3 and 1/2 hp sump pumps.

Professional sump pump installation costs typically start at around $700. The final cost depends on a variety of factors in the home, and whether you need a battery backup pump system. New installation of a primary pump is a wise investment.
