Spring has sprung in Colorado, and with it comes the unpredictable – those sudden downpours that can turn your basement into a soggy mess. While your sump pump is your first line of defense, a failing one can leave you with a costly headache. Here at Plumbline Services, we want to help you avoid a flooded basement and ensure your home is protected all season long.
Is it time to replace your sump pump?
Sump pumps, like any appliance, don't last forever. Here are some signs it might be time to consider a replacement:
- Age: The average lifespan of a sump pump is 7-10 years. If your pump is nearing or past this age, it's wise to plan for a replacement before a storm hits.
- Performance Issues: Is your sump pump running constantly but not effectively removing water? Are there strange noises coming from the pit? These could indicate a failing motor, clogged impeller, or faulty switch.
- Frequent Repairs: If you find yourself constantly calling for repairs, a replacement might be more cost-effective in the long run.
- Peace of Mind: Even if your current pump seems functional, consider the peace of mind a new, efficient sump pump can bring. Newer models offer features like improved performance, quieter operation, and battery backup options.
