Sump pumps and ejector pumps
Sump pump repair and replacement in Allentown PA
Many homes and businesses rely on sump pumps to keep water out of the basement or ejector pumps for wastewater below the level of your sewer line. L&M Plumbing can install, repair or replace your sump pump or ejector pump. Backed by more than 20 years of experience, we are licensed and insured and service homes and businesses in Allentown, PA, and the Lehigh Valley.
A sump pump protects your home from flooding that may occur during rainfall or from a burst pipe or broken water heater by automatically ejecting groundwater from beneath your home. These pumps are installed at the lowest part of your basement so that they can pump water before it begins to flood your basement and floors. The water is diverted into a sump basin or pit. After reaching a certain level, the sumps pump ejects it out via a discharge, away from your home’s foundation.
A flooded or damp basement can cause all types of problems for a residence or business. Water can damage and ruin personal items and appliances stored in a basement. Even a little water can lead to thousands of dollars in cleanup costs. A damp basement is also a health concern since it can cause a buildup of unhealthy mold, bacteria and mildew.
A sump pump will make a home healthier and help protect your belongings and home. If excess water is present in your home, the sump pump will automatically turn on and remove the excess water from the area before it causes any type of damage.
Ejector pump installation, service and repair
The water, waste and sewage from your home or business operates on gravity to move from your property into a municipal sewer system. Many times, plumbing – such as basement toilets, showers and laundry areas – is located below the main sewer line and requires a sewage ejector pump to pump water and waste through your piping system.
Ejector systems are most commonly used in the lowest point of homes and businesses. Ejector pumps are common in septic drain field systems, including in rural areas where the septic drainage field or holding tank is located higher than the plumbing fixtures.
