plumber what I need? If I tell them it is not working and what the last two did, I think they will just put in one just like what I have. You are great! Even though I am not handy, I could understand what you said
Do you have a check valve in the pipe going out to wherever you are pumping,? If not the water from a long run will just keep recycling in the basement and the pump will run continuously. Is your pump running all the time? If so of course you will wear it out. Add a check valve if you dont have one. you can buy one at any hardware store. Just tell them the size of your discharge line.
I have a valve and I had it replaced when they installed the second pump. Thank you for trying to help, it is appreciated.I have a valve and I had it replaced when they installed the second pump. Thank you for trying to help, it is appreciated.
