Common Signs Your Sump Pump Needs Service

It is vital to identify a struggling pump before the next heavy rainstorm hits. Contact us for an inspection if you notice any of these issues in your Merton or Hartland home:

  • Constant Running: If your pump runs frequently even when it is not raining, it may be undersized or have a faulty switch.
  • Unusual Vibrations or Noise: Thumping or grinding sounds often indicate a damaged impeller or a motor nearing the end of its lifespan.
  • Visible Rust or Corrosion: Mineral deposits and rust can seize the mechanical parts of the pump, leading to sudden failure.
  • An Aging System: Most sump pumps have a reliable lifespan of seven to ten years. If yours is older, it is time for a proactive replacement.
  • Irregular Cycling: If the pump turns on and off erratically, the float switch may be stuck or misaligned.
