Benefits of Sump Pump Installation

Sump pumps are designed to eliminate excess moisture and prevent flooding. A sump pump is most commonly used in homes that are located in areas that are prone to floods, so not every home needs a pump.

However, if you have a problem with dampness in the basement, have experienced flooding in the past, or live in an area where floods are more likely, a sump pump offers several benefits.

The benefits of a sump pump include:

  • Preventing flooding during a storm
  • Keeping humidity levels lower in the basement
  • Protection in the event of a sewage backup
  • Keeping the basement dry
  • Improving indoor air quality
  • Helping prevent mold growth

A working sump pump is the best way to protect your home from water damage and mold growth, which accompanies high humidity levels and water damage. We can evaluate your home and explain the options that are available for preventing water, mold, and flood damage.

Understanding How Sump Pumps Operate

A sump pump is designed to move water from the basement and out of your home. The pump is installed at the lowest point of the basement in a pit that is specifically designed to hold the pump.

A valve in the pump senses when the water level is getting too high. The pump automatically turns on and pumps the excess water out of the pit to prevent flooding in your home.

The pump requires power to turn on and move the water away from your home. Unfortunately, the power can go out in a storm. A backup system can help ensure that your pump will work when you need it, even if the power is out.

A battery backup system is commonly used to provide an alternative source of power to protect your home. Another option is a water-powered backup system. Because these systems use additional water to operate the pump, they can increase your water bill.

When to Consider Sump Pump Replacement

It is important to understand the signs that your sump pump needs to be replaced, in order to ensure that your home is properly protected against water damage.

Common signs of a failing sump pump are:

  • Pooling water
  • Foul smell
  • Loud humming motor
  • Over 5 years old

If you live where there are extreme weather conditions, such as heavy rain or snowfall, frequent replacement may be necessary in order to make sure the sump pump can remain effective. If any of these signs seem familiar and you suspect you need a replacement, you should contact our professionals at Benicia Plumbing so we can properly assess your situation and recommend whether sump pump replacement or repair is necessary or not.
