The accumulation of unwelcome water in your home can be a troublesome and costly issue. This is why the humble sump pump—a behind-the-scenes workhorse appliance—can be a home saver when you need it most.A sump pump’s purpose is to remove excess water, thereby preventing structural damage, mold growth and/or damage to furniture or stored items in a basement or crawl space.When the ground becomes saturated after a heavy rain or a spring snow melt, excess water will flow into your sump pit. As it becomes full, a float switch on your sump pump will activate the pump. The water is then pumped from the sump pit and away from your home, which prevents the rising groundwater from flooding your basement.Sump pumps are invaluable when you need them, but they often sit for months without use. By performing simple routine care and maintenance you can keep your sump pump in tip-top shape so it is ready to bail you out when you need it most. Show more
