Frequently Asked Questions

How does a sump pump function?

A sump pump works by sensing a specific water level in a sump pit and directing excess water away through discharge pipes. It remains operational until the water level decreases below the pump's set threshold.

What types of sump pumps are available?

There are two primary types of sump pumps:

1. Submersible sump pump: Positioned just below ground level, typically at the lowest point in a home's basement. It gathers water in a basin and automatically removes it through a discharge tube when the water level rises.
2. Pedestal sump pump: Located above the sump pit with a base extending into the pit to expel water. Although louder than submersible pumps, pedestal sump pumps are suitable for narrow or shallow pits.

Which type of sump pump is recommended?

The best choice of a sump pump for your residence depends on factors like property drainage and pit layout. Given the opportunity, we suggest submersible sump pumps for their quieter performance.

Sump Pump Replacement: Act Swiftly

If your current sump pump is irreparable, do not postpone its replacement. Delaying could expose your home to unexpected flooding incidents. Let Mr. Rooter^® Plumbing of East Central Georgia assess your existing sump pump and pit to determine suitability for your property.
