The best type of sump pump for your home depends on several factors, including the size of your sump pit, the amount of water that needs to be removed, and your budget. A professional sump pump specialist can help you determine the best pump for your needs.
There are two main types of sump pumps: pedestal and submersible. Pedestal pumps are located above the sump pit and are less expensive, while submersible pumps are fully underwater and are more effective and longer lasting.
While it is possible to install a sump pump yourself, it is recommended to hire a professional for the job to ensure that the installation is done correctly and in accordance with local building codes.
