Sump Pumps: What They Are & How They Work
Sump pumps are installed in a small pit or sump tank that’s around 2 feet deep and 18 inches in diameter. As water flows into the sump, it triggers the initiation of the 1/2 HP or 1/3 HP pump, which pumps the water up through a pipe that expels the water into either the drainage system or out the discharge pipe and into the landscaping.
Sump pumps can discharge anywhere from 20 to 80 gallons per minute. If the amount of water in the basement exceeds this (such as a flood), it will trigger an alarm to let the owner know the sump pump can’t keep up.
Sump pumps aren’t designed for extended operation, with most capable of providing, at most, 20 to 25 hours of continuous operation. However, this is more than sufficient time to resolve problems such as leaking fixtures, water heater failure, etc.
Sump Pump Installation
Sump pump installation usually takes between two to four hours to complete. Our licensed and insured plumbers will prepare the installation site, dig the hole, insert the pump, connect all pipes and electrical components, and test the system for proper operation.
