Hello Friends,
I have question, I have a house with sump pump, but in my region sump pumps are essentially non existent.
Two plumbers friends where honest with me that they don’t want to make recommendations as they don’t know any better.
Current pedestal pump is about 7 years old, so is the back flow preventer valve.
Should I replace both of those items as preventive maintenance?, if so any recommendations on pump ? Should I get pedestal or submerged one ( any proven manufacturers )
Additionally I believe this was very low quality sump pit with open holes in it, I read online that it should be sealed ?
Are there universal covers that I can retrofit to seal it ? Any recommendations.
I would appreciate feedback.
This is currently how it looks
