Installing a Sump Pump Made Easy

!: Installing a Sump Pump Made Easy

One of the most difficult parts about owning a sump pump is actually putting it into place.  After that, they really require no thought and they will continue to work, sometimes for years in the background.  Fortunately, installing a sump pump is not all that difficult, particularly if the sump hole is already in place.

There are two different types of sump pumps that you may need to install, the pedestal variety and the submersible variety.  Either of these will really work and it depends on your own personal preference as to which one you're going to use.  If you have the submersible variety, installing a sump pump is only a matter of removing the old one and then putting the new one in its place.  The only thing that you're really going to need to worry about is making sure that the pump is properly connected to the drain line, otherwise it will simply pump water back into the sump hole.

Installing a pedestal pump may be a little bit more difficult but many people prefer this variety because it is easily adjusted.  After removing the old pump from the sump, place the new one in position and make sure to connect the pump with the drain line properly.  You are then going to need to adjust the stops on the float bar so that the pump will trigger on and off at the proper times.  Make sure that it comes on well before the water reaches the top of the sump hole and goes off in plenty of time so the pump does not run continually.
