Comprehensive Sump Pump Services
Expert Plumbing Services Are Only a Call Away
During heavy rains, some homeowners depend on a sump pump to remove water from their living space. While California residents don’t experience frequent, torrential rainfalls as much as other parts of the country, it is not uncommon to see sump pumps installed in Orange County homes. This is especially true for residences with inadequate drainage as they tend to experience flooding in the basement or around their property following a storm.
How Do Sump Pumps Work?
A sump pump is a small device that sits in a “sump pit” dug into the lowest point of your home such as the basement floor or crawl space. A pipe is attached and runs out to a safe area where water can be disposed away from your property.
As it rains, water naturally flows to the lowest point of ground beneath your home. If you have a sump pump installed, this water will begin to pool into the sump pit. Once the water reaches a certain level, the sump pump will automatically activate to dispose of the rainwater.
In addition to flood prevention, benefits of sump pumps include:
- Mitigating growth of mildew and mold
- Reducing risk of electrical fires due to flooding
- Increasing property value
- Preventing damage to furnishings and fixtures
