"Michael, Clinton and Chris have been awesome! They installed an A/C unit with our existing furnace. We had a few bumps along the way but they are trustworthy and willing to go the extra mile to make sure their customers are happy! They are always on time and professional. Would recommend them to anyone needing Heating and Air Services."

"Great response time, exceptional service and work. It's hard to get quality, timely work around this area and this company exceeded all expectations. I also have a radon meter and within 1 day of installation I had significantly reduced readings of radon under the EPA limit as promised."

"Very satisfied with the end result. They installed a gas line from my mechanical room in the basement to my kitchen without cutting into any drywall. The project did fail inspection twice (once for a bad fitting, the other I think the inspector was just in a bad mood), but they were quick to come back out to make sure we understood what happened and made sure we were comfortable with the situation. I would call them again if I wanted to run another gas line."

"Kevin was excellent. He looked over the problem, gave me suggestions and options for getting the job done, and explained everything to me in ways I could understand because I have no idea what needed to be done. Kevin fixed my problem (the same day no less) and I was totally satisfied with his work. If I have any other plumbing issue I won't even bother calling anyone else. Thank you Kevin I appreciate your help."

"Andy was a refreshing change to the “typical” plumbing professionals I’ve encountered in my days. Yes others have gotten the “job done” but Andy also seemed genuinely interested in me as a person and built an immediate rapport. He did excellent work as well, explaining his pricing before the work was done and also helped me with ideas for future plumbing projects in my home. Highly recommended!"

Sump Pump Installation questions, answered by experts

Thankfully, you do have a few sump pump backup options in case it fails. One option is a battery-powered backup sump pump. Another option is using a portable backup generator as a power supply for your sump pump. Unlike a battery-powered backup which has limited power, a generator can run around the clock for as long as you need it. 

Or you can opt for a water-powered backup pump, which uses your home’s water supply as a source of power. However, this may not be the best option if you find your house frequently has low water pressure.

The difference between an ejector pump and a sump pump lies in their purpose and design—an ejector pump functions to remove liquid gray water and soft solid sewage waste from your home. If you have a laundry room or bathroom in your basement, an ejector pump for your sewage tank prevents sewage from backing up in your washing machine or bathroom’s drains.

A sump pump is designed to remove excess groundwater that may enter your home, either due to flooding or periods of heavy rain.

Inspect the pump annually, test the float switch, and clean the discharge line to ensure efficient operation.

In most cases, standard homeowners insurance policies do not cover damage from a sump pump failure or overflow. Coverage for water damage is often limited to sudden, unexpected events like a burst pipe that was not caused by negligence. To be covered for sump pump issues, you will likely need to purchase a specific rider, endorsement, or additional water backup insurance. If your insurer offers this type of coverage, they may require proof that your sump pump is regularly maintained.

A sump pump's lifespan is typically 7 to 10 years, though the general range can be anywhere from 5 to 15 years. The specific type of pump is a major factor: pedestal sump pumps last an average of 20 to 25 years, whereas submersible sump pumps last between 5 and 15 years. While pedestal pumps are less expensive to service, they are also louder and more prone to clogging.

Several other factors influence longevity, including the pump's quality, usage frequency, and maintenance schedule. A high-quality pump that is well-maintained in a dry climate may last for two decades, while a lower-quality, poorly maintained pump in an area with a high water table or frequent flooding may fail in six years or less.

Regular maintenance, including annual inspections and tuneups from a professional, can significantly extend the pump's life. It is time to consider a replacement if your sump pump runs constantly, cycles frequently, shows visible rust or corrosion, or trips a circuit breaker. As a preventative measure, many homeowners replace their pumps every eight years. It's also worth noting that a manufacturer's warranty can indicate expected lifespan, and some home insurance policies may not cover water damage from a pump that is past its recommended replacement date.
