Routine Sump Pump Maintenance in Morris, Litchfield County & Surrounding Areas
Regular sump pump maintenance keeps your system reliable and extends its lifespan—especially in moisture-prone areas of Northwestern Connecticut. Our maintenance plans include a detailed inspection and cleaning process that helps prevent costly water damage.
Our Sump Pump Maintenance Checklist Includes
- Pump inspection and cleaning: We remove sediment, debris, and buildup that can block your sump pump’s intake and reduce performance.
- Float switch testing: Ensures the pump activates correctly when water levels rise, preventing flooding in basements or crawl spaces.
- Discharge line check: We verify that your discharge pipe is clear and positioned to direct water safely away from your home’s foundation.
- Battery backup testing: For homes in areas like Watertown or New Hartford, backup systems are crucial during power outages.
- System performance testing: We run a full cycle to confirm your sump pump can handle heavy water flow during storms.
Routine service can mean the difference between a dry, protected home and unexpected basement flooding. We recommend annual maintenance—especially before rainy or thawing seasons.
