Basement and utility room plumbing tips and maintenance

Follow these maintenance tips to help you keep your basement and utility room in good working order:

Test your sump pump often. To ensure your sump pump is in great working order, it's important to test it frequently, especially prior to summertime or whenever you're expecting storms or high volumes of rains. To evaluate it, merely put a pail of water into the sump pit. The water should trigger the pump, which will turn on, eliminate the water and shut off if it's working as it should be.
Routinely inspect your washing machine hoses. Check for any wear and tear that might cause leakages or flooding if left undetected. Also, prior to doing laundry, ensure your drain hose isn't folded or kinked, which might flood the machine.
