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.
