To avoid unnecessary repairs, you should perform maintenance on your sump pump at least once a year. We recommend this be done during the late winter when the snow begins to melt or in early spring just before the rainy season. For sump pumps that run frequently, we suggest you perform maintenance during both times. In addition to full maintenance, you should periodically test your sump pump by pouring a bucket of water into the sump pit to make sure the pump starts.
If your pump does not check out, you should consider a repair. While you can repair your sump pump, repairs can cost as much as a new unit. Even with regular maintenance, you will eventually need a sump pump replacement. Most units come with three- or five-year warranties but can last up to ten years depending on how frequently it is used, the quality of the pump, the electrical source, and more.
