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 guarantee your sump pump is in great working order, it's essential to evaluate it frequently, specifically 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 needs to trigger the pump, which will switch on, get rid of the water and shut off if it's working as it should be.
Frequently inspect your washing machine hoses. Look for any wear and tear that might cause leaks or flooding if left undetected. Also, before doing laundry, ensure your drain hose isn't folded or kinked, which might flood the machine.
