  • If your sump pump isn’t turning on when you need it most, there could be a power issue. Check that it’s plugged in and the circuit breaker hasn’t tripped, and if you can’t get it to work, call Mr. Rooter® for our commercial sump pump service.

  • Do you smell burning? Does your sump pump keep tripping the circuit breaker? It may have burned out, a common issue caused by everything from improper installation to continuous cycling and an aging system.

  • Short cycling is when your pump constantly turns off and on, and it’s usually the result of a faulty check valve or float switch. It places the motor under great stress, and, if left unchecked, it may eventually burn out the motor.

  • The backup battery can fail due to corrosion, but the most common reason is that it’s too old and needs to be replaced. Either way, if you need commercial pump repair in Norfolk, VA, contact Mr. Rooter® today.

Signs Your Commercial Pump System Needs Repair

Typically, the first sign that you need commercial or industrial sump pump repair is an excessive, unsettling noise. Knocking, screeching, and grinding sounds indicate mechanical misalignments or part failure, and the longer it continues, the worse that noise will become.

You may notice a leak from the body of the unit, creating a slip hazard and potentially damaging your property.

Look out for excessive heat and vibration, as well as continuous cycling, which, as noted above, can burn out the motor.

The signs you have an issue aren’t always obvious. Many times, an older sump pump will simply lose efficiency over time, and as that loss is gradual, it’s not always noticeable.

Preventative Maintenance for Commercial Pump Systems

We recommend regular inspections and maintenance to find issues as soon as they arise and prolong the life of your unit. Ideally, you should pay for a professional sump pump inspection every three to six months, depending on usage.

Our experts will conduct a thorough inspection, while testing float switches, valves, and alarms, and cleaning discharge lines and sump pits. We can plan a regular maintenance schedule to keep everything in working order, and we offer maintenance packages for all businesses in Norfolk, VA.
