Safeguarding Your Basement & Water Supply
For homes with basements or those located in low-lying areas, a sewage ejector or sump pump is the only thing standing between a dry crawl space and a costly flood. Recent data shows that over 13% of properties in downtown Durham face significant flood risks, making a high-performance pump a must.
Here are a few key pump care insights:
- Test pumps regularly – Activate your sump pump every few months to confirm it powers on and discharges properly. Waiting until the next major storm to find out it doesn’t work can lead to costly flooding.
- Inspect components – Look for cracks, rust, or damage on lids, pipes, or float arms. Replacing worn parts early prevents full system failure.
- Clean the basin – Dirt and debris buildup around the pit or screen can affect pump efficiency. Cleaning it out helps maintain smooth operation.
- Check backup systems – If your home relies on battery or water-powered backups, make sure they’re functional, especially before hurricane or rainy seasons.
- Monitor for noise or vibration – Pumps are often tucked out of sight, so unusual sounds are your first sign something’s off.
Acme Plumbing Co. provides a level of stability and care that larger franchises often overlook. Every maintenance visit we perform includes a review of these components, helping to detect early warning signs before they become emergencies.
