While it might not look like it on the surface, your sump pump has many different moving components. When one of those components starts to malfunction or is faulty, it affects the functioning of the entire sump pump system. Sometimes, an issue may come up suddenly and prevent your pump from working altogether.
In other situations, you may notice that your sump pump isn’t working in the way that it normally does. As soon as you notice something is awry with your sump pump, it’s time to schedule professional repair services.
There are many different problems you may experience with your sump pump.
Clogged pump
Malfunctioning float switch
Broken check valve
Burnt motor
Probably the most common issue homeowners experience with their sump pump is a clog. It isn’t uncommon for debris to end up in the sump pump pit due to flood waters or just a dirty basement. When this happens, the sump pump can clog inside the intake or discharge line. Either way, you’ll notice that your pump is running, but no water is flowing out of the discharge line.
In other cases, there may be debris that prevents the float switch from moving. This switch should freely rise when the water level rises. When the float switch rises, it should turn on the motor to your sump pump. It’s also important to mention that the float switch for your sump pump may be faulty if your pump fails to turn on when water fills up your sump pump’s basin.
Your sump pump sits low within a basin and pumps water against gravity to the outside of your home. In order for it to do this, plumbers must install a check valve. The valve ensures that water only flows out the discharge line and does not come back into the pump. If your check valve is faulty, your sump pump will continue to run without actually discharging any water.
