What Is a Sump Pump?
A sump pump is a small but powerful device installed in the lowest part of a basement or crawl space. It sits in a specially designed pit, called a sump basin, where water naturally collects. Once water reaches a certain level, the sump pump activates and pumps the water safely away from your home’s foundation.
Signs Your Sump Pump Needs Professional Attention
Here are some telltale signs your sump pump needs professional attention:
- Loud grinding, rattling, or humming noises
- Constant running, even when no water is present
- Foul odors or standing water in the sump basin
- Frequent basement dampness or flooding
- A pump that doesn’t turn on at all
If you notice any of these red flags, don’t hesitate to contact Auburn Heating Plumbing Air Conditioning & Electrical! We offer 24-hour emergency services to get your system up and running again.

Yes! Chagrin Falls experiences an average of more than 40 inches of rain each year, along with heavy snow accumulation in winter. Our region also has clay-heavy soil with poor drainage, allowing water to easily seep into basements and crawlspaces. A well-maintained sump pump is a must to prevent flooding and protect your home or business from costly water damage, mold growth, and structural issues.
-
Choosing the right size sump pump depends on several factors, including the square footage of your basement or crawl space, the depth of your sump basin, the average water table levels in your area, and how often your basement collects water.
For most homes, a 1/3 to 1/2 horsepower pump is sufficient. However, homes near low-lying or flood-prone areas may need larger systems. Our plumbers can assess your property and recommend an appropriate capacity for your residential or commercial needs!
-
Because sump pumps often go unused until a major storm, it’s important to test your system regularly. We recommend testing your sump pump every 2-3 months to avoid unpleasant surprises when heavy rains hit. Here are some steps you can take:
- Pour water into the sump pump pit to make sure it activates properly.
- Inspect the discharge line to confirm water is flowing away from the foundation.
- Schedule annual maintenance with our local professionals to clean out debris, check the float switch, and ensure the check valve is working correctly.
