Keep Your Home Dry with Sump Pump Repair, Maintenance & Installation
Sump pumps are a home’s last line of defense from flooding during a plumbing emergency or severe weather. Don’t put your home at risk of water leaks and flooding due to water in the surrounding soil; make sure that you have a sump pump installed by a qualified plumbing expert from Super Service Plumbing.
How Do Sump Pumps Work?
Sump pumps are placed in a home where it’s most likely to collect water first: its lowest point. They are activated when a device, known as a float switch, rises due to elevated water levels. Sump pumps provide peace of mind in areas prone to flooding and assist drainage systems that cannot keep up with heavy rain.
Once activated, the pump has a hose that transports the water to a safe location. Since many sump pumps are used for bad weather, they should be hooked up to a sump pump battery backup. The battery backup allows them to run during power outages.
