How do Sump Pumps Work?

Sump pumps are fairly simple machines. They compile all flooded, puddled, or surging water found in your crawl space in one single tube. The water is then sent through the tube and directed outside of your home in either the backyard or surrounding land. Simple in composition yet powerful in execution, sump pumps are the perfect solution to basement flooding.

Types of Sump Pumps

There are several types of sump pumps that all follow the same in-and-out patterns. From battery-operated to water-powered, Home Comfort Experts offers an option for every home. Here is a comprehensive list of our easy-to-install sump pump options:

• Submersible sump pumps: Looking for a quiet pump? Submersible sump pumps are placed underground, making them a quieter, more efficient option. Because they’re fastened underwater, you won’t need to worry about any residual water. For fast, noiseless water removal, submersible sump pumps are the way to go.
• Pedestal sump pumps: The motor and pump are separate objects with a pedestal sump pump. One piece goes underground while the other sits above ground to power the operation. While submersible sump pumps may become overrun by surrounding water, pedestal sump pumps never have this issue.
• Battery-operated backup: The main benefit of a battery-operated sump pump is that it maintains power even during an outage. For complete protection, we recommend having a battery-operated pump on hand. If you know that your home is storm-prone, battery-operated backup pumps may be a good resource.
• Water-powered backup: Before considering a water-powered backup pump, verify that they’re allowed in your home or business. Because water-powered backup pumps use a large amount of pressurized water to pump away flooding, they are a hot-button resource. This type of pump doesn’t require as much maintenance as it’s not dependent on batteries.

Reasons Why You Need a Sump Pump?

Both Northern Indiana and Southwestern Michigan are chronically flood-prone. Cold, rainy winters bring the potential risk of basement flooding. Sump pumps are a fast-acting, easy-to-install solution to annual flooding.

You and your family need a sump pump to powerfully protect your crawl space from accumulating widespread water damage. If you’re in need of instant flood protection, make sure to contact Home Comfort Experts for service near you.

Restore your comfort the expert way

Causes for Sump Pump Failures

Like most household tools, sump pumps become faulty with age. They may pick up a new noisy habit, or fail to remove water in a quick manner. Take note of the small ways in which your sump pump has failed to restore your comfort at home. Whether from overuse, impact, or time, your sump pump may randomly start displaying one of these common signs of failure:

Overuse

Putting too much pressure on your sump pump may cause it to lessen in power. It won’t funnel away unwanted water with the same pure speed it once did. Although it may seem easier to repair it, getting a new pump will cost less and yield greater results.

Sump Pump Repairs

If you're experiencing issues with your sump pump, our skilled plumbers are here to help. We’ll diagnose the problem accurately and provide efficient repairs to restore your sump pump's functionality.

Clogs

Clogs can happen with or without a heavy amount of water present. Dirt, silt, and other debris can pile up within the pit, making it virtually impossible for water to pass through. Don’t attempt to remove clogs at home. Leave it to the Home Comfort Experts for successful removal.

Loss of Power

Because most primary sump pumps aren’t powered by batteries, they are at risk of losing power. Power outages may completely wipe out your home pump. This is where investing in a battery-powered pump is beneficial.

Defective Pump

By defective, we mean virtually useless. If you’ve examined the pump for all types of damage and still cannot pinpoint the cause, it may be time for a replacement. Luckily, Home Comfort Experts can easily provide you with a new pump with just one phone call.
