Sump pumps can burn out, lose power, become clogged or misaligned, or malfunction in a variety of other ways. It’s valuable to have a warning device installed that will signal water buildup. These alarms can alert homeowners or neighbors of flooding so that it can be resolved before water damage occurs. Be careful. Be smart. These horror stories are real and happen every day. Do your homework before jumping into a new home. Too many of us spend more time investigating a car before making a purchase than we do spending tens of thousands more dollars and decades longer paying on a home. You have time to educate yourself, and we hope that this little chapter has helped you move forward in the right direction.
