Sump pump not working the way it should? There may be a issue with your sump pump discharge line. Our plumbers will find and fix the problem.
The sump pump discharge line, or what is sometimes referred to as the sump pump discharge pipe, is the water line that is responsible for leading all of the water your sump pump collects away from your home. Sump pump discharge lines are generally made from PVC pipe that is selected and sized to specifically match your sump pump.
Discharge lines usually run from the sump pit to up and out of the wall of the house. The lines may run back into the ground, or out and away from the home into a section of yard that is further away. At Lenox, we lead all of our discharge lines back into the ground so they can safely and discreetly push extra ground water far away from your home.
If there is an issue with your sump pump, we can determine whether or not it is stemming from the sump pump discharge line. If there is in fact a problem with your sump pump discharge line, our team will make spot repairs to get your existing discharge line working properly. When your sump pump discharge line needs to be replaced or rerouted, or if you need a brand-new line installed, our team will get the job done quickly and professionally with as little disruption to your home as possible.
We recommend running sump pump discharge lines underground to protect them from damage and from freezing during cold temperatures.
Sump pump discharge lines are generally 2-3 feet below ground, depending on your home and the environment you live in.
Sump pump discharge lines are generally 20 feet or longer. However, it is important that you have the right size sump pump discharge line for your sump pump so it functions as the manufacturer intended. To determine the correct size sump pump discharge line for your pump and your home, consult a professional plumber.
Whether your sump pump is broken down, or you’re interested in installing a new sump pump to protect your home from flooding and water damage, our experienced plumbers will get the job done.
A backup sump pump is a battery or water-powered backup option that turns on when your primary sump pump fails, providing you with additional protection from flooding and water damage.
Combination sump pumps offer the dual protection of both a primary and backup sump pump, all in one package. Our team installs new combination sump pumps as well as repairs or maintains any system currently in your home.
