Reliable Sump Pump Placement Professionals in Montgomery, Alabama

If your sump pump fails, your system will fail, and your basement may get wet. For this reason, you should opt for a modern sump pump system from Montgomery Plumbing Services that includes robust equipment and a high-quality battery backup to help keep your basement protected from flooding year-round, no matter the season.

We are your one-stop solution for all your installation needs for sump pumps in Montgomery, AL. Our qualified and professional team can also assist with sump pump upkeep and fixes.

Our sump pump was built specifically by our specialists, which was rigorously tested by our quality assurance department for three years before it was introduced. We strongly advise adding battery backup systems to our sump pump because heavy storms often come with power outages. We also typically recommend installing our sump pump liner in conjunction with the sump pump. This liner has large, punched holes that facilitate easy groundwater access and allow it to be pumped out. An integrated pump stand prevents dirt from reaching the impeller.

We Set Up Multiple Types of Sump Pumps

Several different types of sump pump models are available. We can assess your home or commercial building’s specific needs and recommend a custom solution.

Our experienced professionals are ready to handle many types of setups, which may include:

Pedestal Sump Pumps

A pedestal sump pump, as implied by its name, sits above the sump basin, with the motor positioned above the sump basin. This allows it to stay dry even during high water levels. This specific design extends the lifespan of pedestal pumps, making them more durable than other types like submersible pumps.

One major advantage is that pedestal pumps offer easier access for maintenance due to their above-the-water setup. However, they can be noisier and less discreet compared to submersible pumps as the motor is not submerged. We offer pedestal systems in both plastic and cast iron. You can select from 1/3 and 1/2 horsepower pumps, and pump bodies made from thermoplastic materials.

Submersible Sump Pumps

Submersible sump pumps operate fully submerged in the sump basin. Differing from pedestal designs, the motor of a submersible pump is encased in a waterproof housing, so they can work effectively while submerged. As water levels increase past a certain threshold in the basin, the pump’s float switch activates, starting the pump.

Water is then pulled through the pump’s intake and expelled out of the sump basin using a discharge pipe. This prevents flooding and water damage through safe water removal.

One significant advantage of submersible pumps is their noise-reducing design. As the pump works underwater, the water dampens the noise, making the system much quieter. On the downside, submersible pumps may have a shorter lifespan due to continuous water exposure.

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 a well-water source and a great alternative backup for a main sump pump, without the need for a battery or electricity.

They work by utilizing a home's water pressure from municipal water sources to remove water of your sump pit. They can continue to work indefinitely your home has municipal water pressure.
