"They completed the work for me within a few days of the initial phone call. The plumber was very knowledgeable and professional. As well, the quote for the work was very reasonable and lower than the other quotes that I received. I will definitely make Vigilant Plumbing my "hometown plumber" whenever I need those types of services."

"We had a pool installed in July. Now we are creating our outdoor living space. Other than time management its been great working with Bryan. He stays late to get the job completed and his pricing was the best I got out of 7 quotes. I then hired him to install a pump in my backyard and that too has went well. Currently, he is working on my filtration/aggeration issues to stop the rainwater from washing away my backyard. Bryan is always polite and patient to explain our choices and the cost benefits of them. I appreciate his text of photos & website for clairty. He's very thorough and always cleans up after himself. He recently hired an office assistant, so hopefully that will make a huge difference in his scheduled appointments & communication."

Sump Pump Installation FAQs, answered by experts

A sewage ejector pump is necessary if you have any plumbing fixtures, such as a bathroom, laundry room, or sink, located below the level of your home's main sewer line. Standard plumbing relies on gravity to drain wastewater and solid waste into the municipal sewer system or a septic tank. For fixtures below this level, like those in a basement, gravity cannot move the waste upward. The ejector pump provides the force needed to pump the sewage up to the main line. Without one, wastewater from below-ground fixtures would back up, potentially causing a sewage overflow and flooding. If all of your plumbing is on the main floor or higher, gravity is sufficient and an ejector pump is not needed.

A sump pump can be plugged into a regular, 110-volt outlet with three-prong openings, but it must have GFCI protections per the NEC, meaning you’ll need a GFCI outlet and circuit. Sump pumps require two outlet openings, one for the plug to the motor and one for the float switch.

One common reason a sump pump stops working is improper sizing. Different locations need different sizes and power ratings of sump pumps depending on the typical amount of water the pump needs to manage. If your sump pump is too small for the quantity of water, it can overwork and either burn out or reduce the life of the unit. If the pump is too big, it can overwork and burn out early. 

Yes, many modern water pumps are designed with energy efficiency in mind. Look for pumps with high efficiency ratings or those with an Energy Star certification. These pumps consume less power and can reduce your utility bills. Additionally, variable-speed pumps are more efficient since they can adjust the flow based on demand, providing significant savings over time.

If you have a self-cleaning washing machine but you’re still seeing lint, your water pump filter might be clogged. To clean it, you should unscrew the drain hose, then remove the water pump filter. From there, you can inspect it and clean it with warm water before replacing it. Check to be sure your washing machine is functioning by running a short cycle.
