Signs You Need To Replace Your Sump Pump

When your sump pump is operating efficiently, it’s out of sight, out of mind. However, even the most minor issues can wreak havoc on your home if left unaddressed. That’s why homeowners should always look out for any signs that their sump pump may need repair or replacement, including:

• Power issues: If your sump pump doesn’t turn on, you could have issues with the float switch.
• Constant running: When your sump pump is constantly running, it could mean it isn’t powerful enough to keep up with the accumulated water, or you may have a faulty switch.
• Visible rust: Rust on your sump pump is often caused by a corroded battery or bacteria and can lead to clogs if not repaired.
• Electrical issues: Tripped circuit breakers are a sign that you may have a damaged switch, damaged wiring, or an insufficient power source.
• Significant vibrations: If your sump pump vibrates excessively, it could be due to debris that has been drawn in by the impeller.
• Unusual noises: If the regular hum of your sump pump is replaced by rattling or grinding, you likely need repairs.
