Our sump pump was built specifically by our engineers, and it was tested by our quality assurance department for more than 3 years before it was introduced. We strongly advise adding battery backup protection to our sump pump because heavy storms often come with power outages. We also typically recommend installing our sump pump liner to complement the sump pump. The sump pump liner is designed with large holes that facilitate easy groundwater access and allow it to be pumped out. A built-in pump stand prevents dirt from reaching the impeller.

We Set Up Various Types of Sump Pumps

Several different types of sump pump systems are available. Our team assesses the specific needs of your property and recommend a custom solution.

Our team of experts can help install many types of setups, which may include:

Pedestal Sump Pumps

Pedestal pumps, as the name suggests, is placed atop a pedestal, featuring an elevated motor. This helps keep it dry even if the basin fills with water. This unique positioning extends the lifespan of pedestal pumps, as they tend to last significantly longer submersible models.

Another key differentiator is that pedestal pumps are simple to repair and maintain due to their above-the-water setup. They may produce more noise and are less discreet compared to submersible pumps because of the exposed motor. We offer pedestal systems in both plastic and cast iron. We offer 1/3 horsepower pumps, 1/2 horsepower pumps, and thermoplastic pump bodies.

Submersible Sump Pumps

Submersible sump pumps function while completely submerged in the sump basin. Differing from pedestal designs, their motors are enclosed within waterproof materials, so they can work effectively while submerged. As water levels increase above a set point, a float switch is triggered, which turns the pump on.

The pump then draws water through its intake and expels it out of the basin through a discharge pipe. This keeps flooding at bay and potential water damage by moving the water away from your home.

A key distinguishing feature of submersible pumps is their quiet operation. Since the pump is submerged, the water acts as a sound barrier, resulting in less noise compared to pedestal pumps. Unfortunately, they may not last as long because of constant exposure to water.

Water-Driven Sump Pumps

Water-driven sump pumps are a helpful way to guard against home sump pump failure. This type of pump is well-suited for homes with access to well water and a great alternative backup for a main sump pump, with no battery or electricity required.

They work by utilizing a home's water pressure from municipal water sources to remove water of your sump pit. They will keep functioning as long as your home has municipal water pressure.
