Signs It’s Time for Sump Pump Replacement
The reasons a sump pump stops properly working can vary. Factors contributing to its failure can include the age of the pump, the type, and where the pump is located. Sump pumps often display warning signs that the system is nearing the end of its lifespan and replacement is necessary. The following signs may indicate it is time to have your sump pump replaced:
Strange Noises
Unusual, loud sounds coming from your sump pump are an indication that a problem is occurring. The most likely culprit is worn or damaged parts. Rattling or grinding noises could be due to a jammed or damaged impeller, the fan on the bottom that pulls water into the pump.
Violent Vibrations
Impellers are often damaged when pumps suck up hard debris. A damaged impeller is what causes the entire sump pump system to wobble. This motion creates stress on the shaft. Re-bending an impeller is nearly impossible to do right, resulting in the need for replacement.
Irregular Cycling
Sump pumps are designed to operate when needed. A sump pump that cycles on and off frequently, even in heavy rains, is a sign that something more concerning is going on. The cause may be something as simple as an incorrectly adjusted float switch. Other reasons, such as wiring malfunctions or a shortage in the electrical system, are more complex and may result in sump pump replacement.
