As your sump pump ages, repairs will unfortunately become more frequent and necessary. If you’ve had your pump for more than seven to ten years and are experiencing issues with it, you will likely need to schedule a repair.
Visible rust and corrosion are both common causes for professional repair when it comes to your sump pump. Rust and corrosion in your sump pump can become a health hazard very quickly and will ultimately require service as soon as possible.
When a sump pump begins to fail, it is very common to hear loud, unfamiliar noises. If you start to hear foreign sounds like grinding or rattling, your sump pump’s impeller is likely jammed and will need to be repaired as soon as possible.
Oftentimes when a sump pump’s float switch is experiencing issues, it can cause adverse reactions in the overall system. If you notice that your pump is constantly running, or running at inappropriate times (i.e. when it’s not needed), this is a sign that something is wrong. You’ll need to call in our professionals as soon as possible for an expert repair diagnosis.
Waseca homeowners can prepare their sump pump for heavy fall rains by clearing debris from the pit, ensuring the float switch moves freely, checking the exterior discharge pipe for blockages before early freezes, and pouring water into the basin to test the cycle.
Sump pumps in Waseca homes often fail during heavy fall storms due to storm-related power outages, tripped circuit breakers from lightning, or the system becoming overwhelmed by intense rainfall.
To protect your Waseca basement from flooding during autumn power outages, Connors Plumbing, Heating and Air recommends installing a battery backup sump pump system that automatically engages when main power is lost.
Schedule a fall sump pump inspection with Connors Plumbing, Heating and Air to have our technicians test the motor, clean the basin and check valves, verify float switch operation, and inspect the discharge line before the winter freeze.
The most common causes of fall sump pump failure that Connors Plumbing, Heating and Air fixes in Waseca include worn-out motors, jammed float switches, power loss, and discharge lines clogged by autumn leaves or early freezing temperatures.
