Milwaukee Sump Pump Repairs
1. The Switch:
-
-
- The switch is the most important part of them pump as it tells the pump when to start and when to stop. If the switch fails, then the pump fails, which can turn a minor malfunction into a major issue. Fortunately, this problem is easily avoidable. By purchasing a sump pump with a dual float switch or attaching a dual float switch to your existing pump, you can add a secondary system to take over if the primary switch fails. Alpine Plumbing can help install this quick fix that will help prevent any water from backing up into your basement.

2. Battery Powered Sump Pumps:
-
-
- For those unexpected times when the power goes out, having a battery powered backup pump can save you from inevitable damage. The backup pump will continue draining when the primary pump shuts off. It is generally connected to a controlling device that alerts the backup when the power goes out and allows it to take over for the primary sump pump.

3. Regular Sump Pump Checks:
-
- The experts at Alpine Plumbing recommend getting your pump checked every six months and replaced every ten years.
