How Does a Sump Pump Work?
A sump pump is typically installed in the lowest part of your home, typically in the basement, to prevent flooding. It consists of a sump basin or pit dug into the ground, into which water naturally flows or is directed. When the water level in the pit reaches a certain point, a float switch triggers the pump to activate. The pump then draws water from the pit through a pipe and expels it outside the building, usually away from the foundation, to prevent water from accumulating and causing structural damage or flooding indoors. This system effectively safeguards the building by actively managing water levels and directing excess water away from vulnerable areas.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the different types of sump pumps?
Pedestal sump pumps have a lower upfront cost than submersible sump pumps, but they are louder and need more maintenance.
Submersible sump pumps operate quietly and are more durable but more expensive and complicated to install.
The type of sump pump you choose depends on your home, needs, and budget.
How do I test my sump pump?
Homeowners can, and should, regularly test their sump pump. To test a sump pump, pour a gallon of water into the sump pit and make sure the float switch activates the pump.
Then, watch as it pumps the water out of the pit to ensure it’s being sent away from the house.
Finally, listen for strange noises and check for any signs of leakage, rust, or poor operation. If you notice any issues, call for professional sump pump repair.
Should I use a battery- or water-powered backup sump pump?
Water-powered sump pumps are a great option if you rely on a municipal water source since they can supply the required water pressure.
Battery-backup sump pumps are generally more affordable than water-powered sump pumps and can be used in homes that rely on well water.
