Ok I purchased a house in Oct. it was built in 1970. This house has 2 Sump Pumps. One in the laundry room at the back part of the house and another sump pump in a crawl space that is outside the perimeter walls of the house. I will also note I have a Well that is about 2-3 Feet away from the sump pump in the crawl space. My issue is that the sump pump in the crawl space goes off every hour like clockwork. I live in Central Canada and it has been like -40 Celsius for like 3 months now and I know there should not be any water flowing down to the base of the house etc. I am really worried I am going to come home from work and find my basement flooded due to a failed pump. The thing is i do not want to just add a backup pump etc. because i feel that is just bandaid-ing the situation. I was wondering if anyone has seen a setup like this or might know why the sump hole fills up so fast.
Really appreciate your time.
