"They did a great job! It went faster than I expected. I asked one of the guys if he had time, would he check a leak under my kitchen sink. He was very thorough. It turns out that we had a bolt still attached underneath the sink from a previous water filter installation. We needed a different type of bolt and he switched the bolts for free! He even gave me some much needed advice to help prevent further leaks from the faucet area. I really appreciated the extra mile! I am very pleased with Lone Star Water Services and would gladly recommend them to others."

"I had a different company out to diagnose a problem with the
rain sensor on my irrigation system.
That company?s technician found the sensor bypass switch on
the control panel on.
He told me that was the reason the sensor was not working
and apparently stopped his diagnosis there.
That next weekend I found that the sensor was indeed not
working and that was probably the reason the bypass switch was on.
I decided to try to replace the sensor myself and bought a
new sensor at Home Depot. (The Home Depot sensor was only $40.00 and the other
company was going to charge well over $200.00 to replace it.)
While I was attempting to install the new sensor I
accidentally touched the power terminals with the sensor wires, which caused a
spark.
The control panel went blank.
I initially had thought that the problem might have been a
circuit breaker or GFCI.
After checking the breaker box and all the GFCIs I could
find I was pretty sure it was the transformer in the control panel. (The
voltage in the panel is 24 volts and since it was wired directly into the 110
volt breaker box I knew there must be some sort of transformer in the control
panel.)
The control panel is mounted outside and is wired directly
into the circuit breaker box. I knew I had no business attempting to replace
the control panel.
I called H20 Sprinkler Systems on Monday.
They told me they could be out on Wednesday morning or
possibly Tuesday afternoon.
I told them we had family coming Tuesday afternoon so
Wednesday morning would actually be better.
The technician arrived a few minutes before his scheduled
arrival time of 8:00 AM.
He quickly told me that the controller had been ?fried? (my
term.)
He was able to install a new controller.
As he was about to connect the rain sensor (which I had just
bought at Home Depot) he warned me that those models are sometimes problematic.
Since I thought I would be able to return the sensor to Home
Depot, I had him go ahead and install a better sensor.
His sensor was $189.00 so it was quite a bit more than the
Home Depot model, but almost $100.00 less than the model offered by the other
company.
To be honest, I always wonder when someone suggests an
upgrade if they are totally honest or just pushing for more sales.
The installation took less than an hour and the total bill
was $478.00 ($200.00 for controller, $179.00 for sensor, and $89.00 for one
hour of labor and service call.)

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 move wastewater and solid waste to the municipal sewer or septic tank. However, for fixtures located below grade (e.g., in a basement), gravity is not sufficient.

The purpose of a sewage ejector pump is to actively pump this wastewater and solid waste upward into the main sewer line. Without an ejector pump in this situation, wastewater would have no way to exit and would eventually back up, causing a sewage overflow or flooding in your basement. If all of your home's plumbing is on the main floor or higher, gravity can handle the drainage, and an ejector pump is not needed.

No. Sump pumps have different capacities, which refers to the volume of water that they can remove. They also come in various horsepower ratings, which measure the size of the pump’s motor. For many homes, 1/3 horsepower is enough. But if you live in an area that floods often, you might need a more powerful model.

Common problems include motor failure, clogged discharge lines, and float switch malfunctions. Regular maintenance prevents many issues.

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.

There are several things you can do to maintain your sump pump and prevent sump pump problems. For instance, keeping a lid on your sump pit goes a long way in protecting your pump system from silt, sand, dirt, and other debris. When water drains from the outside, such as along your foundation, or with melting snow, water runoff often brings sediment with it. 

Also be wary of corrosion, particularly if your sump pump system is made of metal. Keep an eye out for rust and have it inspected regularly by a plumber or sump pump technician.
