Maintenance

SSPMA recommends periodic maintenance during the year, including checking the pump every three or four months.

Make sure the pump is disconnected from the power source before you handle or clean it.

Make sure the sump pit is free of debris and the pump screen is clean. After cleaning and replacing the pump, plug it in again and pour enough water into the pit to make sure the pump functions properly. Never operate the pump without water. And finally, always refer to the manufacturer's manual for specific maintenance and performance requirements as well as safety information.

warning DANGER!!! Unplug sump pump from power source before handling. Failure to do so could result in severe personal injury or death when touching the pump or discharge piping.
