Advantages of Installing a Sump Pump
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.
How Sump Pumps Work
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.
Pump Installation, Repair & Maintenance
Because the rising water turns on your sump pump, people often don’t know the pump isn’t working until it fails to turn on when it is needed. We offer repair and maintenance service for sump pumps in Benicia.
Our technician can inspect your pump to make sure it is working properly, so you have the peace of mind of knowing that the pump is in good condition. If there is a problem with the pump, we can fix it or replace it, and prevent unexpected water damage to your home.
