Sump Pumps
The Importance of Sump Pumps
Basements are prone to flooding, which can lead to water damage, mold growth, and structural issues. A reliable sump pump system is your first line of defense, removing excess water and keeping your basement dry. By automatically detecting rising water levels, sump pumps activate and pump the water away from your home’s foundation. This ensures a dry basement, protecting your property, preventing mold growth, and providing you with peace of mind.

Absolutely! A sump pump is an essential investment for any homeowner with a basement. It helps prevent basement flooding, which can lead to costly water damage, mold growth, and structural issues. Even if you haven’t experienced flooding in the past, it’s better to be proactive and install a sump pump to protect your home and belongings from potential future disasters.
A sump pump is typically installed in a pit or basin called a sump pit, which collects water that enters the basement through drains or from the ground. When the water level in the pit rises, the sump pump automatically activates, pumping the water out and away from your home’s foundation through a discharge pipe. This continuous cycle ensures that your basement stays dry and free from excess moisture.
While some homeowners may consider a DIY approach to sump pump installation, we highly recommend hiring a professional like Sermon Service & Electric. Sump pump installation requires proper knowledge of plumbing, electrical connections, and the correct sizing and placement of the pump. Our experienced technicians have the expertise to ensure a proper installation, maximizing the efficiency and effectiveness of your sump pump system.
Regular maintenance is crucial to keep your sump pump in optimal condition. We recommend scheduling an annual inspection by a professional. During the maintenance visit, our technicians will check the pump’s operation, clean out any debris, test the float switch, and ensure all components are working correctly. This proactive approach helps identify and address any potential issues before they become major problems.
If your sump pump fails during a rainstorm, it’s important not to panic. First, check if the pump is receiving power by ensuring it’s plugged in and the circuit breaker hasn’t tripped. Next, verify that the float switch is not obstructed and moves freely. If you’ve performed these basic checks and the pump still doesn’t work, contact Sermon Service & Electric immediately. Our emergency response team is available to assist you, even during inclement weather, to get your sump pump system back up and running as quickly as possible.
