Ejector Pump Installation
Sewer ejector pumps usually last 7-10 years or more. Issues can arise during their lifespan. If your pump keeps causing problems, replacing it could be a cost-effective solution.
There are a few things you need to consider before your sewage pump installation. Your friendly and experienced Hey Dude Plumbing technician will help walk you through these items.
- Pump size – Not all sewer ejector pumps are ideal for all Atlanta area homes. The more drains you have feeding into the pump basin, the bigger pump you will need. The distance the wastewater has to travel to the sewer lines will also affect this decision.
- Tank installation – If you're just replacing your pump, you more than likely already have the space for the ejector tank. New installation will simply involve removing the old one and replacing it with the new one. If this is your first ejector pump, our technician will help you determine the best location for installation and dig a large pit to bury it in.
- Pump installation – This step requires the utmost of care and precision because the connections between the pump and other components must be properly sealed, otherwise wastewater could leak into your home.
Installation specifics differ from one model to the next, but our team is here to help you throughout the process of choosing the best model for your home or business.
Causes of Sewer Pump Issues
Dealing with sewer ejector pump problems? Don't worry, here's a comprehensive breakdown of the most common culprits, simplified for easy understanding:
1. Bypassing the Sewage Pump Float Switch:
- It's okay to bypass the float switch temporarily to clear waste from the sump basin. But, remember, it's not a long-term solution!
- If you keep the pump running directly without the float switch, it can burn out the motor faster.
2. Clogged, Blocked, or Obstructed Discharge Lines:
- When minor obstructions happen, the pump might run for a bit longer to push the waste through.
- But if you're dealing with a major blockage, the pump can end up running for an extended period, which is not good news for the pump or your wallet.
3. Overworked Pump Motor:
- If you consistently overload your ejector/sewer pump with more waste than it's designed for, the motor can get overworked.
- This can lead to reduced performance and a shorter lifespan for your pump.
