The most common type of sump pump is the permanent pump. This pump is installed along the edges of your space. It draws electricity from the home as a source of power and will be able to ensure that any excess groundwater that accumulates will be diverted away from your home.

Permanent pumps are available as pedestal or submersible units.



Pedestal sump pumps are ideal for smaller sump basins; the pump motor works above the basin, above the water. Submersible sump pumps, on the other hand, are placed underwater.

Another type of sump pump is the battery backup pump. This is designed to kick on should the power go out. It will ensure that, in the case of a heavy rainstorm, your home will not be flooded with water. It will also help the main sump pump out, should the amount of water that has accumulated be too much for it to handle.

A third type of sump pump is the AC inverter backup pump, which will require a generator to continue working if the power goes out. This particular pump is not as efficient as the battery backup pump, but is generally considered to be more reliable.

You will need to repair your pump if you notice the following issues:

Power failure is another source of sump pump trouble. Sump pumps draw their energy from the electrical grid; if the grid goes out, the pump will not be able to do its job. This is why we recommend adding a battery backup pump in addition to your main pump, to ensure proper protection.
