Sump Pump Installation

Just like small cracks in your foundation can lead to leaks, a broken or missing sump pump can create water problems for your basement. 

Sump pump installation in basements or crawlspaces are a way to keep them dry and healthy. Be proactive when it comes to keeping your basement or crawlspace dry and healthy. 

Sump pumps allow you to remove water from your basement before it accumulates. It is a crucial line of defense. Your home may be a great candidate for a sump pump if your water level is higher than your home’s foundation, or you live in a low-lying area with heavy precipitation.

How Sump Pumps Protect Your Basement

When properly installed from the experts at American Basements, sump pumps push water away from the problem area and allow it to safely drain elsewhere. Sump pumps are submersible electric pumps that sit in a basin within a basement or crawlspace. When the water level within the pit reaches a predetermined point, the pump automatically turns on and pumps the water out. 

American Basements & Crawlspaces Corp. uses Zoeller sump pumps and with respective pumping power depending on various factors. These pumps come with a 3 year manufactures warranty on pump (Iron Ohre Bacteria in soil voids this warranty. If these bacteria are present extra monitoring of the sump pump is required, as these bacteria clog sump pumps). Installation or new batteries are an additional charge.
