Sump pumps are designed specifically to remove accumulated water from basements and crawlspaces to avoid flooding, water damage, and mold growth. It is the best way to prevent water damage as a means of preventive maintenance on your property.
Sump pumps are usually hard wired directly into a home’s electrical system or plugged into an outlet. Most sump pumps are equipped with an emergency battery backup to ensure that the pump will work when the power is out.
A well-maintained sump pump will last between seven to ten years, or it will depend on how often it’s used. If your pump is acting up, it could be time for a replacement. For a estimate on a new sump pump or emergency backup system, contact Viper Drain Cleaning.
