Don't Forget Your Annual Maintenance!

Don’t take any chances when it comes to the safety and well-being of your home! Ensure that the waterproofing and floor-stabilizing systems you have invested in receive annual maintenance to provide you years of service.

Why does my sump pump need annual maintenance?
Think about your car – you have it regularly maintained with oil changes and inspections to ensure that you get the most use out of your vehicle. Just like your car, your sump pump is an electro-mechanical device that needs a tune-up every now and then to keep it running properly, so that you can get the most out of it.
Inside a pump liner, dirt and sediment can build up overtime and lead to pump failure and even flooding!
During a sump pump maintenance we check for the following to ensure optimal performance:

-          Check pump operation – float switch, intake, check valve, impeller

-          Clean sump liner of silt and sediment

-          Change the batteries in your WaterWatch alarm

-          Check the discharge line for potential problems

-          Inspect crawl space, slab foundation, or yard for signs of flooding or moisture problems and suggest solutions

-          Check the CleanSpace liner

-          Provide any recommendations as needed

 

Keeping your dehumidifier maintained is just as important too!
If you have our SaniDry Sedona installed in your crawl space, you likely did such to prevent issues like mold, mildew, musty odors, and sticky air. Wouldn’t it be disappointing to have spent the time and money to have such an excellent system installed in your home to only then have it not be performing at its best? Even the most superior systems still need some TLC to ensure years of optimal performance!

When performing a SaniDry maintenance we:

-          Check refrigeration system and cold coil operation

-          Inspect blower

-          Inspect and clean heat exchange core

-          Verify discharge

-          Change filter to new duet carbon filter

-          Adjust controls as necessary

 

But – annual maintenance isn’t just for your interior waterproofing systems, having your yard drainage solutions tuned-up are equally as vital!

You chose us to keep your home dry, and we’re here to help you maintain that protection – inside and out. Yard drainage systems can clog and fail, leaving your home vulnerable to a flooded yard and water damage.

We check our yard drainage system annually by:

-          Checking drainage system operations for any potential issues

-          Clean drainage pipes of debris or sediment to avoid clogging and systems failure

-          Verify water discharge to prevent pooling and flooding

-          Inspect the foundation for signs of water problems and suggest appropriate solutions
