Sump Pump Installation, Maintenance & Repairs Crystal Lake Florida


Did you know? Sump pumps will solve most basement flooding and dripping issues as they are created to get rid of water from basements and crawlspaces.

What is a Sump Pump?

A sump pump is a submersible pump that sits at the bottom of a sump pit, which is generally set up at the lowest sump pump repairspoint in your basement or crawl area. Ground water surrounding your home's structure is carried into a perimeter drain system installed at the base of the structure. Water finds its way into the perforated drainpipes and is quickly diverted to the sump pit. The sump pump, which is set off by a float switch, eliminates the water by pumping it to the nearest storm drain, dry well or detention pond. A sump pump turns on just when water inside the sump pit reaches a pre-determined level.

A lot of brand-new houses are geared up with sump pumps but older homes can be retrofitted with a sump system to prevent basement flooding. Our Midwest Plumbers plumbers are professionals at sump pump installation and repair.

Sump Pump Installation

Sump pumps can be hard-wired into a home's electrical system or be plugged into an outlet. Lots of sump pumps are equipped with a battery backup to guarantee that the pump will work when the power is out, such as during an extreme storm when it's particularly essential that water is pumped away from your house.
