What You Really Need to Know About Sump Pump Repair

Posted: Nov 05, 2013
Author: Ace Hardware Home Services

The result of a broken or damaged sump pump that needs repair can be frustrating and messy, not to mention smelly. When it comes to sump pump repair, here are a few crucial things you should know.
Many problems can arise with the float on your sump pump. To properly maintain this component of your sump pump, regularly perform this test. First, pour a little water into the pit of the pump. The float should rise and activate the pump and then eventually turn off when the water is gone. Every few months, perform this test to ensure the float of your sump pump is in working order.
One reason many homeowners need sump pump repair is because debris has built up within their pump. Part of maintaining your pump should always include cleaning out the pump so debris doesn’t have the chance to cause problems within your system.
Sometimes, you may find that your sump pump gets overloaded with dirt and debris, and these substances work their way into the impeller, eventually clogging the whole system. To unclog the impeller, you will need to get into your pump and access the impeller to get rid of any debris preventing the pump from working properly.
If you have a sump pump, you may find that you encounter other problems that are deserving of sump pump repair besides these ones. Electrical problems are another issue that homeowners with a sump pump frequently encounter. Keep in mind that electrical issues should be handled with caution. Always hire an experienced plumber if you run into an electrical problem with your sump pump.
