Wet winter weather can really wear out your old sump pump. On average a sump pump should last at least 10 years if maintained properly. Make sure to check the inlet screen once every 6 to 12 months to ensure that your sump pump is free of debris. After you’ve cleaned out the inlet, test your sump pump by dropping a bucket of water in the hole to ensure the float is functioning properly. If your sump pump is no longer functioning properly it could be a disaster waiting to happen.
