Sump Pump Repair & Installation in Coats Bend, AL

Taking care of the sump pump system in your home is critical to keeping your basement dry. Just like other appliances in your house, regular sump pump servicing is essential to perform at its best.

The Need for Regular Sump Pump Maintenance

Calling in a technician to examine your basement drainage system every year is a wise decision. A knowledgeable professional will identify common problems, such as disconnected parts, sediment buildup, or various concerns that could lead to failure if left unaddressed.

During a routine check-up, your pump will be carefully checked to guarantee it's running efficiently. A trained technician will test the various parts of the sump pump, make sure the intake valve and impeller are clear, and perform a comprehensive system cleaning.

After cleaning, the sump pump liner will be inspected for sediment, which reduces the chance of clogging and ensures the system remains free of obstructions.

Backup Systems for Sump Pumps

Even with a fully functioning sump pump may stop working if the power goes out. Getting a battery backup installed ensures that your pump continues working, in the event of a power failure.

Our service professional can test the power backup during the annual service visit, to confirm it's fully charged and functional if the power fails.

What Else is Checked During Your Service Visit

Aside from the sump pump, our technician will perform maintenance on your dehumidifier. For homes equipped with dehumidifiers, the technician will clean or replace the filters to keep the air clear and dry. The technician will lubricate necessary components and check for any issues that may cause problems later on.

The discharge line will be examined to confirm proper drainage. Issues with water freezing in the line will be addressed to keep the system operational.

Preventive Measures & Future Upgrades

Sometimes, when inspecting the system, our technician will spot early signs of trouble that weren’t noticeable before. With early detection, our technician can recommend repairs to avoid major problems.

Occasionally, upgrades may be suggested, as we introduce new features to help keep your basement dry.

The Benefits of a Sump Pump Warranty

It's worth thinking about a sump pump warranty, but be aware of the fine print. For warranties offering free replacements, think about when you'd request a replacement. The unfortunate reality is, it’s usually after failure and your basement is wet.

Choosing a reliable company that installs high-quality sump pump systems and offers battery backups ensures your home is always protected. Regular inspections is important to preventing water damage.
