  1. 8 Common Sump Pump Problems

  2. Clogged sump pump system A drain pipe that moves the water buildup away from your house can become clogged over time. Usually, a drain pipe can get blocked because of mud, small stones, or debris in the water.

  3. Gassy smell around the sump pump It is possible for you to smell something similar to gasoline coming from the sump pump. Sump pumps have drain traps that hold water. The purpose is to prevent gas and sewage from backing up or entering your property.

  4. Continuously running sump pump There can be numerous reasons behind a sump pump constantly running even when there is zero amount of water around it. Usually, a stuck switch on the “on position” keeps the sump pump running continuously.

  5. Poor installation If you live in a flooded area or if you constantly get your basement filled with water, and your sump pump is not big enough to pump out the large amount of water, it can make it overwork and gradually degrade. Another possibility can be that your sump pump was installed poorly.

  6. Overworked system Depending on the size of your pump system, a size inappropriate to your flooded basement can easily overwork the sump pump. Another situation can be, if you have had the sump pump system for a long period of time. Source : https://bit.ly/3CHxOKu

  7. Improper drainage system A sump pump is usually connected to your house’s drainage system to pump out the excess water. If your plumbing system has faults or missing valves, it can easily ruin the whole drainage process of water through the sump pump.

  8. Frequent power failures It may be pretty common to forget to check the electricity flow to your sump pump when it has stopped functioning. Before analyzing in depth, checking the power first helps reduce unnecessary trouble.

  9. Making noises that seem strange Technically your sump pump shouldn’t make much noise while it’s running. But if it still does, there can be a number of reasons behind it, such as a jammed impeller.
