Sump Pump Installation & Repair in Troy, Alabama

Looking after your sump pump system is critical to maintaining a dry basement. Much like other appliances in your house, a sump pump requires regular service to perform at its best.

Why Sump Pump Maintenance is Essential

Getting an expert to inspect your sump pump system every year is a good idea. A knowledgeable professional will identify common problems, such as detached connections, accumulated silt, or various concerns that could create bigger issues if ignored.

In your regular service appointment, your sump pump will be thoroughly inspected to ensure optimal performance. Our service expert will test the various parts of the sump pump, clean out any buildup in the intake valve, and conduct a full clean of the system.

Once the system is clean, the liner will be checked for buildup, which reduces the chance of clogging and makes sure the system doesn't clog down the line.

Backup Systems for Sump Pumps

Even if your sump pump works perfectly could stop functioning during a power outage. Adding a battery backup to your sump pump helps keep the system running, even when the power goes out.

Your technician can examine the battery backup during the regular service, ensuring it's holding a proper charge and functional if needed during an outage.

Additional Services

In addition to servicing the sump pump, our technician will perform maintenance on your dehumidifier. For those with a dehumidifier, the technician will clean or replace the filters to ensure efficient operation. The technician will lubricate necessary components and ensure everything is functioning smoothly.

The discharge line will be examined to confirm proper drainage. Concerns about freezing in the line will be addressed to keep the system operational.

Preventive Measures & Future Upgrades

During routine maintenance, our technician will spot early signs of trouble that have developed over time. By catching these problems early, our technician can recommend repairs to avoid major problems.

In some cases, upgrades may be suggested, as newer technology becomes available to help keep your basement dry.

The Benefits of a Sump Pump Warranty

A sump pump warranty is something to consider, but be aware of the fine print. When warranties include replacement coverage, think about when you'd request a replacement. The answer is often when it’s too late and your basement is already flooded.

Opting for a trusted company that offers durable sump pumps and offers battery backups ensures your home is always protected. Regular inspections is crucial to preventing water damage.
