Sump Pump Maintenance Checklist

There are a few quick things you can do to ensure your sump pump is prepared for efficiency.

Check that the cord is in decent shape.
Plug it into a GFCI outlet in the event of power surges.
Ensure the pump is upright and not tipping to one side, since this can cause the pump to not activate when required.
If it’s been awhile since the pump has run, pour a bucket of water into the pit to check the pump turns on and removes the water efficiently.
During arid weather, take out the sump pump and clean the grate on the bottom since it can pull small stones into the grate over time.
Check the discharge pipe’s vent hole is clear.
