Top 10 Reasons Why Your Sump or Ejector Pump may Fail:

  • Power Failure: Sump and ejector pumps rely on electricity to function, so power outages can render them ineffective during heavy rainfall or flooding events.
  • Lack of Maintenance: Neglecting regular maintenance, such as cleaning the pit and inspecting the pump, can lead to clogs, debris buildup, and eventual pump failure.
  • Age: Over time, pumps may experience wear and tear, reducing their efficiency and increasing the likelihood of failure, especially if they are older models.
  • Mechanical Issues: Mechanical failures, such as broken switches, worn-out motors, or damaged impellers, can hinder the pump’s ability to function properly.
  • Incorrect Sizing: If the pump is not properly sized for the specific requirements of your property, it may struggle to handle the volume of water, leading to premature failure.
  • Overloading: Excessive water flow or debris entering the pit can overload the pump, causing it to work harder and potentially fail.
  • Poor Installation: Improper installation, including incorrect positioning, inadequate sealing, or insufficient drainage, can compromise the pump’s performance and longevity.
  • Frozen or Clogged Discharge Lines: During cold weather, discharge lines may freeze or become clogged with ice, preventing water from being expelled properly and causing the pump to fail.
  • Sump Pit Design Issues: Issues with the design or location of the sump pit, such as inadequate drainage or improper placement, can affect the pump’s ability to operate effectively.
  • Electrical Problems: Faulty wiring, damaged cords, or malfunctioning electrical components can disrupt the pump’s power supply and lead to failure.

Addressing these potential issues through regular maintenance, proper installation, and timely repairs can help prolong the lifespan of your sump and ejector pumps and reduce the risk of failure.
