When Should You Consider a Sump Pump?
A properly installed sump pump involves more than simply placing a pump in a pit. Depending on the project, our sump pump systems may include:
Sump Basin Installation
A properly sized basin collects water from the basement drainage system and provides a controlled location for the pump.
Primary Sump Pump
The primary pump automatically activates when water reaches a predetermined level in the basin.
Weeping Tile Connection
Interior drainage systems can be connected directly to the sump basin to provide controlled water collection.
Discharge Piping
Water is discharged through properly installed piping and directed away from the foundation where site conditions permit.
Check Valve
A check valve helps prevent discharged water from flowing back into the sump basin after the pump shuts off.
Backup Pump Options
Secondary or battery-backup systems may be available for homeowners looking for additional protection during pump failure or power outages.
