Plus, discover how Putman and Sons Plumbing stands ready to assist with any sump pump concerns or plumbing needs you may have.
Understanding the Seasonal Shift:
Melting snow and spring showers can lead to a surge in water, placing added stress on your sump pump. If your sump pump is not adequately prepared, it may struggle to keep up with the influx of water, potentially resulting in a flooded basement or crawl space.
Key Considerations for Your Sump Pump:
- Check for Winter Wear and Tear: Assess for winter wear and tear due to freezing temperatures, ensuring optimal functioning of all components.
- Test the Float Switch: Test the critical float switch to guarantee smooth activation of your sump pump, adjusting its positioning if needed.
- Inspect Discharge Lines: Examine discharge lines for debris and ice, preventing potential blockages that could hinder water flow.
- Consider Backup Systems: Given the unpredictability of spring weather, consider installing a backup sump pump system. This adds an extra layer of protection in case your primary pump falters.
