What Is a Sump Pump?

Most commonly used in areas that experience a great deal of rain, a sump pump is used to eject water that has accumulated in what is called the sump basin. The sump basin is generally found in the basement of a home, or perhaps a crawl space, and is intended to collect any groundwater that surrounds the home.

When the water level reaches a predetermined capacity, the sump pump activates, pumping the excess water to a storm drain or other means of evacuation. These systems protect the home by ejecting water from beneath it during storms, preventing overflows that can mean flooding and other damage.

Having a sump pump fail often results in extensive water damage as well as stress for homeowners. If you suspect that something is wrong with your sump pump, get help immediately; waiting is not worth the potential risk to your property.

Sump Pump Installations & Replacements

From picking the right site for installing your sump pump to testing each component after installation to make sure everything works, our Boston sump pump plumbers have every aspect of this project covered. If you already have a sump pump but it’s underperforming and beyond repair, we can also remove your old sump pump and replace it with a new one that’s set up to perform optimally for years to come. When we arrive, we show up in a truck that’s fully stocked and equipped with the tools and replacement parts we might need to provide a replacement service.  In an emergency, we can even respond 24/7. You can reach us day or night to get the same-day sump pump installation or replacement you need.

What Is the Most Common Reason for Sump Pump Failure?

The most common reason for sump pump failure is a lack of maintenance. Regularly inspecting the impeller and checking the float switch and outlet pipe for debris can help prevent sump pump failure. Additionally, ensuring that the sump pump is not overloaded with water, which can cause it to short circuit, can help reduce the risk of failure.

Why You Need a Sump Pump Battery Backup

While a sump pump is an essential tool to protect your home from flooding, it can still fail due to power outages or mechanical issues. That’s why a battery backup system is a smart investment to ensure your sump pump is always operational when you need it most.

At Winters Home Services, we offer reliable battery backup systems that provide the following benefits:

• Protection during power outages: When severe weather strikes, power outages are common. A battery backup system ensures your sump pump continues to work even when your home is without power.
• Peace of mind: With a battery backup system, you can rest assured that your home is protected from flooding even when you’re not there to monitor it.
• Increased lifespan for your sump pump: A battery backup system can help extend the life of your sump pump by ensuring it isn’t overworked during power outages.
