San Juan Capistrano Sump Pump
A sump is a small pit, typically in a basement, that gives excess groundwater somewhere to gather. That, in theory, can prevent excess water from rising into the basement, causing flooding. However, during periods of heavy rain, the sump won’t have sufficient storage capacity to do its job. That’s where a sump pump comes in. It’s a device that can detect rising water or pressure in a sump and activate it to move the water elsewhere. Most sump pumps detect water using a float switch. It’s a similar device to what you’d find inside one of your home’s toilets. The difference is that the float moving up activates the mechanism instead of turning it off.
Typically, sump pumps remove water using a discharge line running 10 to 20 feet from the house’s foundation. If your home has a basement that floods frequently, a sump pump installation can help. You can use one in concert with a French drain system to collect water from your foundation’s perimeter. Our plumbers can help determine your home’s water removal needs. Then, they can recommend a pump capable of evacuating water accumulations fast enough to prevent flooding.
A sump pump installation can provide the following benefits to your home.
- Reduce basement humidity levels
- Reduce mold and mildew risk
- Help prevent insect infestations
- Protect basement appliances
- Satisfy insurance requirements
