Installing a sump pump is not a complex process, but it can be a messy one. It's always better to allow the professionals at
River Rats Septic & Plumbing
to handle it for you since we never cut corners and we've got the experience to ensure that the project's been done correctly the first time around.
Here’s how we approach every sump pump installation:
- Find a location where water collects and that is close to a ground fault interrupter outlet.
- Dig a hole for the sump approximately six inches deeper and ten inches wider than the sump itself.
- Add gravel.
- Attach the adapters and make a hole into the discharge pipe.
- Install a check valve.
- Channel water away from your home using PVC piping.
- Run PVC piping through the wall.
- Apply sealant as necessary.
- Spread out the water flow.
- Cover the sump pump.
Once that's done, your home will be protected from any potential flood damage. And if there is ever a problem with your sump pump, then River Rats Septic & Plumbing
