Signs Your Sump Pump Needs Attention
Act before the next storm:
It Runs All the Time in Spring
Normal in wet weather, but it wears the pump out faster.
Humming With No Water Moving
A jammed impeller or a dying motor.
Water Spilling Over the Pit
The pump failed or can't keep up.
You Don't Know Where It Drains
If it ties into the sanitary sewer, it needs to be rerouted.
Sump Pumps in Naperville Homes
Naperville's rules and its history both point to the sump pump.
Discharge Outside, Not Into the Sewer
The City of Naperville says sump pumps should discharge outside. A pump tied into the sanitary sewer adds storm water to a line that can back up into basements. If yours is connected that way, we'll reroute it.
Battery Backups for Storm Outages
Heavy storms are when the pit fills fastest and when the power is most likely to go out. A battery backup keeps pumping.
Pumps From the Building Boom
Homes built in the 1980s, 1990s and 2000s often still have their second or third pump. If you don't know when yours was replaced, have it checked before spring.
Spring Is the Busiest Season
Snowmelt and spring rain raise the water table around Naperville basements. That's when pumps run the most, and when an old one is most likely to quit.

Sump Pump Questions From Naperville Homeowners
Outside, away from the house. Not into the sanitary sewer.
Outside, away from the foundation. The City of Naperville says sump pumps shouldn't discharge into the sanitary sewer. If yours does, it adds water to the sewer during storms, and we can reroute it.
If your basement is finished, yes.
If you have a finished basement or anything valuable down there, yes. The storms that fill the pit fastest can also cut the power.
Usually around 7 to 10 years.
Most last around 7 to 10 years, less if they run a lot. If yours is older or getting noisy, replace it on your schedule.
No. It handles groundwater. Sewer backups need a different fix.

It depends on the pump, a battery backup, the pit, the discharge line and any rerouting. We give you a flat-rate price before any work begins.
