There are a few signs to look for that signal your pump is not working correctly and it is time for a sewer ejector pump repair. Beware of the following:A continuously running pump. The pump is supposed to shut off when enough wastewater has been evacuated. If your pump does not shut off, the sensors have likely failed. This not only wastes electricity, it will eventually wear out your pump.The odor of sewage in your basement. This could be a sign of leaky pipes or that the pump is not emptying enough of the sump basin. Either way you should give us a call as both require professional repair.The pump is running but the sump basin is not being emptied. In this case, the pump could be clogged and needs a good cleaning, or it is no longer powerful enough to draw wastewater from the pit. A sewer ejector pump replacement may be necessary in this scenario.
