Kefficient Can Help In Richmond, a sump pump can be a lifesaver for your home. It's the first and last line of defense of any basement waterproofing system. A good sump pump will expel water collected from an interior or exterior drainage system as it comes into your basement or crawlspace. But if that pump fails, your basement can quickly fill up with water. What are the Signs of a Problem With my Sump Pump? When spotting signs of a failing sump pump, Kefficient is here to help. Below are some of the most common warning signs a sump pump needs repair: It's An Old UnitMost sump pumps only last around ten years. Even if your pump isn't having noticeable issues, you don't want your unit dying during an emergency.OverflowingIf you think your sump pump is having trouble, watch it when it rains. If the water is getting too high or spilling over, your pump has an issue. View AllRunning All The TimeIf your sump pump runs a lot, it means either the unit is blocked or is simply not strong enough to handle the water coming into the system. This is an urgent issue that needs to be repaired ASAP.It Doesn't Sound RightIf you listen to your pump and it starts to make strange noises or run loudly, there may be an issue. OR if your pump is too quiet, and not turning on while it's raining, it's time to repair it or replace it.Broken LidIf your sump pump has a broken lid or none, it must be replaced. Dirt and debris can get inside the pump, causing clogs, slowing it down, and damaging the unit.
