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 check it frequently, especially before summer or whenever you're expecting storms or high volumes of rainfall. To evaluate it, merely pour a bucket of water into the sump pit. The water must activate the pump, which will turn on, eliminate the water and shut off if it's working as it needs to be.
Frequently examine your washing machine hoses. Check for any wear and tear that might trigger leakages or flooding if left undiscovered. Likewise, before doing laundry, ensure your drain hose isn't folded or kinked, which might flood the machine.
