Who Needs Sump Pumps?

Any home with a basement or crawl space will have use for a sump pump. Their main purpose is to pump excess water away from the foundation of your home. If you live in an area that experiences a lot of rainfall, you can benefit from a sump pump.

Sump pumps will prevent flooding in your home and will help you breathe easy during spring thaws and heavy rainfall.

Common Sump Pump Issues

Some of the most common problems we see include:

• Failure to include a battery backup. If the power goes out during a storm, you won’t have the power necessary to keep your basement dry.
• Incorrectly sized pumps. The experts at KB Complete Inc. will assess the drainage area and recommend a pump of the appropriate size.
• Having a pump with a low flow rate may become overwhelmed in heavy rains. This means your best pump choice depends on your area.
• Pumps that do not get used often can seize up and stop working. This can be fixed by testing your pump every once in a while. You can do this by pouring water into the pump to activate it to turn on. If it does not turn on immediately, you should call a professional to sort it out before the next large rainfall.

What Kind of Pump is Best for Me?

There are two main types of sump pumps.

Submersible Units

• Drains water at a higher rate
• Can be submerged in water without damage
• Good for homes with lots of water in the crawlspace
• More durable and longer-lasting

Pedestal Pumps

• The motor is located on a raised pedestal
• Activated when water reaches a level to trigger a switch
• Lower rate of drainage
• Cannot be submerged in water
• Good for homes who need a sump pump for emergencies only
