How Does a Sump Pump Work?
A sump pump is a device that protects against flooding in low-lying areas of your property.
The electric pump has a sump pit that collects excess water during storms. Once water levels reach a certain point, the pump turns on and pumps the water out of the space to prevent water damage.
Pedestal vs. Submersible Sump Pumps
When selecting a sump pump for your property, there are two main types to choose from:
- Submersible sump pumps work quickly and quietly because they’re underwater in the sump pit.
- Pedestal sump pumps sit on the floor of your home and are a more affordable option.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is a backup sump pump worth it?
Both a battery backup and a water-powered backup can protect your home when the power goes out.
A battery system is an ideal option for homes that rely on well water. A water-power backup is connected to your home’s water supply and is a great option for homeowners on city water.
How do you test a sump pump?
Attempt to trigger sump pump activation by either lifting the float as high as it goes or pouring water into the sump pit.
Wait for the pump’s motor to activate to ensure it’s working properly. If it doesn’t, you need professional sump pump repair.
Why won't my sump pump turn on?
If your sump pump won’t turn on, call a professional for help. It could be one of a few common issues including:
- A clogged system
- A burnt-out pump
- A failed float switch
- Power issues
