Sump pumps are usually associated with spring in our area because that’s when the snow and ice melt, leading to constant floods which can be devastating for a home. However, we deal with floods on a regular basis throughout the spring, summer, and even in the fall. In fact, the falling debris like leaves and sticks can cause clogs in our storm drainage systems which can lead to periodic flooding in certain areas. This is why we want to talk about installing sump pumps in Champaign, IL throughout the fall.
In truth, sump pumps are protective systems that are great for the whole year. That one winter day where temperatures rise above freezing and the snow quickly turns into flooding waters can be mitigated entirely with the help of a sump pump. And if your basement is just more prone to being flooded, either because of its relative depth or because of abnormal storm and weather patterns, then a sump pump is going to be a huge help.
Sump pumps are extremely valuable systems in our area. It’s probably safe to say that none of the service areas we work in are deserts, or places where there’s no flooding or regular rainfall, so we can assume that all of our homeowners might need this tool. Sump pumps keep your basement free of flooding waters, stop the growth of mold, and keep your furniture and precious heirlooms safe from any damage that might come from that water. They work automatically, and they can be installed at a very reasonable price.
