Your Sump Pump Installation Options

Are you in the market for a sump pump installation? The main reason you should call in a professional is to make sure you have the right type of pump, and sufficient power to remove water from your crawlspace or basement, so that floodwaters don’t infiltrate the rest of your home. There are two main types of sump pumps, outlined below.

  • Pedestal: A pedestal sump pump sits above the water collection pit (known as the sump) and brings in water through a pipe. It then removes it to a wastewater system. These pumps are simple to maintain, however do not work as efficiently as submersible models.
  • Submersible: This is the efficient choice for sump pumps, pulling water through intakes and then forcing it up through a pipe from the sump. The pump sits down in the sump itself, and activates when water starts to rise above it. It does have its drawbacks—submersible sump pumps accumulate wear and tear more easily than the pedestal models.
