Frequently asked questions
How do I know if my sump pump is failing?
Test it by pouring water into the pit and watching whether it kicks on and drains properly. Warning signs include odd noises, constant running, a pump that will not start, or visible rust and age. If yours is more than several years old or struggling to keep up, it is smart to service or replace it before the next big rain.
Should I have a backup sump pump?
A backup is worth considering, especially if your basement or crawlspace is prone to water or you lose power during storms. A battery backup keeps pumping when the power is out, exactly when heavy rain tends to knock it out. We can recommend and install a backup system so a single failure does not flood your Hot Springs home.
Why does my sump pump run constantly?
Constant running can mean a stuck float switch, a pump too small for the water volume, a high water table, or a failing check valve letting water flow back into the pit. Running nonstop wears the pump out fast. We will find the cause and repair or resize the pump so it cycles normally again.
