FAQ

Clear answers before work begins.

When should a sump pump be replaced?

Replacement depends on condition, age, reliability, capacity and whether the existing system can keep up with water entering the pit.

Is battery backup worth considering?

It can be useful where power outages and groundwater rise may happen at the same time, but the backup must be compatible with the system.

Where should a sump pump discharge?

The discharge route must be suitable for the property and local requirements. It should not simply send water back toward the foundation.
