What Does a Sump Pump Do?
A sump pump is a device that is used to remove water that has accumulated in a sump basin, which is a small pit that is dug into the lowest part of your basement or crawl space. The water is then pumped out of the basin and away from your home.
There are two main types of sump pumps: submersible sump pumps and pedestal sump pumps. Submersible sump pumps are installed in the sump basin, while pedestal sump pumps are installed above the sump basin. Both types of sump pumps work by using a motor to pump water out of the basin and away from your home.
Sump pumps are typically powered by electricity, but they can also be powered by a battery or water power. Sump pumps are an important part of your home’s plumbing system, and they can help to prevent water damage and pest infestations.
How Does a Sump Pump Work?
When water enters the sump basin, it raises the water level in the basin. When the water level reaches a certain point, the sump pump turns on and starts pumping water out of the basin and away from your home. The water is typically pumped into a storm drain, a dry well, or a drainage ditch.
Some sump pumps are equipped with a built-in float switch that will automatically turn the pump on and off as the water level in the basin rises and falls. Other sump pumps are equipped with a pressure switch that will turn the pump on and off based on the water pressure in the basin.
If you have a basement or crawl space, you should have a sump pump installed in your home. A sump pump is an important part of your home’s plumbing system, and it can help to protect your home from water damage and pest infestations.
If you do not have a sump pump, or if your sump pump is not working properly, you should contact a professional sump pump installation company as soon as possible.
A professional sump pump installation company can help you determine the best type of sump pump for your home and install it for you. They can also provide you with sump pump maintenance and repair services to keep your sump pump in good working order.
