Furthermore, it should not empty into a sink or any other kind of drain.

  • Inlet screen cleaning
  • Checks on the power cord to ensure it is connected and is working well
  • Put some water into the sump so as to elevate the sump and check if the pump turns on

Once a year routine maintenance

  • The removal, inspection and cleaning of the pipe from the sump
  • Sump cleaning
  • Check whether pump bearings need greasing or oiling. This can be done by visiting the manufacturer’s website or checking the manual that comes with the appliance
  • Sump pump replacement
  • Checking the power cord and ensuring it is connected to the power
  • Dumping some water to raise the float and switching on the pump. If required, the float is adjusted

A Guide to Some of the Causes of Sump Pump Failure

The leading cause of sump pump failure is a power failure. An electrical power outage has some devastating effects on your pump and that is why it is important to buy a backup generator. The generator can be a lifesaver at the onset of a storm when the power is knocked out. You should also use a service entrance surge protection to secure your electrical system since some components of the sump pump are susceptible to power surge damages. Improper installation is another major cause of sump pump failures. You should follow the instructions that come with the appliance so as to avoid this. In some other cases the switch may have some problems. This may happen if the pump moves from its correct position resulting in float failure. Other sump pump failure causes include lack of maintenance, discharge lines that are clogged or frozen, product-related defects, and a sump pump of incorrect size.
