Expert Sump Pump Repair and Replacement in Calgary

You likely don’t think about your sump pump until it rains hard. Then you expect it’s draining correctly so your Calgary basement doesn’t sustain water damage.

Sump pumps can quit working for a couple of different reasons.

We’ve witnessed it all. If your pump isn’t running like it should, get in touch with the Experts at A1 Chesney Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning to fix the problem.

We’ll examine your pump during our visit and offer preventive maintenance tips, so it won’t quit when you need it most.

Common Causes of Sump Pump Failure

Sump pumps can cease running for several different reasons:

  • Power interruption
  • Insufficient maintenance
  • Too small of a unit
  • Incorrect installation
  • Switch issues
  • Icy or clogged discharge lines
  • Age (average life span is 10 years)

Sump Pump Maintenance Checklist

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

  1. Check that the cord is in decent shape.
  2. Plug it into a GFCI outlet in the event of power surges.
  3. Ensure the pump is upright and not tipping to one side, since this can cause the pump to not activate when required.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. Check the discharge pipe’s vent hole is clear.
