Common Sump Pump Problems

Let’s explore some common problems and effective solutions to keep your home protected.

• Loud or Unusual Noises: If your sump pump is making loud or strange noises, it could indicate a jammed impeller or a motor issue.
• Continuous Running: A sump pump that runs continuously may be struggling with a faulty float switch or an improperly adjusted one. Our technicians will examine the float switch, ensuring it operates smoothly. Adjustments or replacements will be made as necessary.
• Pump Won’t Turn On: A sump pump that refuses to turn on might have a power supply issue, a malfunctioning float switch, or a problem with the check valve. Check the power supply and float switch. If issues persist, our team will conduct a comprehensive inspection and address any underlying problems.
• Inadequate Pumping: If your sump pump isn’t getting rid of water effectively, it could be due to a clogged intake, a bad impeller, or a pump size mismatch. Our experts will assess the pump’s components, removing any debris and ensuring proper sizing for optimal performance.
• Frequent Cycling: Frequent cycling may indicate a pump size mismatch, a malfunctioning check valve, or water entering the pump pit too quickly. Our team will evaluate the pump size, inspect the check valve, and assess the water entry rate to resolve the issue and prevent unnecessary wear.
• Noisy Check Valve: A noisy check valve can disrupt the quiet operation of your sump pump system, potentially indicating a valve obstruction. Our technicians will inspect and lubricate the check valve, resolving any obstructions or mechanical issues.
• Strange Odors: Unpleasant odors near your sump pump could be a sign of stagnant water or bacterial growth in the pump pit. Regular cleaning and maintenance, including flushing the pump pit, will eliminate odors and ensure a clean and healthy system.
• Sump Pump Overwhelmed: During heavy rain or excessive water entry, a sump pump may become overwhelmed, leading to potential flooding. Consider installing a backup sump pump or addressing exterior drainage issues to manage increased water volume effectively.

Types of Sump Pump Systems We Install Or Replace

At Roy's Rooter, we offer various sump pump systems, each designed to address unique challenges. Let’s explore the types of sump pump systems available.

• Pedestal Sump Pumps:
• Pedestal sump pumps are easily accessible for maintenance if there is a motor above the sump pit. These pumps are cost-effective, have a longer lifespan, and are suitable for smaller sump pits.
• Submersible Sump Pumps: Submersible sump pumps are installed within the sump pit, under the water, for efficient operation. They are quieter, more visually discreet, and better suited for larger sump pits or areas with high water inflow.
• Battery Backup Sump Pumps: Sump pumps with battery backup protect during power outages, ensuring continuous operation. These are ideal for areas with frequent power interruptions, these systems prevent basement flooding even when the main power is down.
• Water-Powered Sump Pumps: Water-powered sump pumps use water pressure to operate, making them a reliable backup system. These pumps are effective during power outages, relying on municipal water supply for operation.
• Combination Sump Pump Systems: Combination systems integrate primary and backup pumps for comprehensive protection. This type of system offers versatility, utilizing both electric and water-powered options for enhanced reliability.
• Pre-Assembled Sump Pump Systems: Pre-assembled systems come with all components, including the pump, basin, and check valve, for convenient installation.
• Crawl Space Sump Pumps: Specifically designed for crawl spaces, these pumps effectively manage water accumulation in confined areas.
• AC/DC-Powered Sump Pumps: AC/DC-powered pumps can switch between electrical and battery power, providing flexibility and continuous operation.

Choosing the right sump pump system depends on factors such as the size of the sump pit, power supply reliability, and specific requirements for your property.
