Sump Pump Installation Winnipeg
If you’re a Winnipeg resident, it’s highly likely your home is equipped with a sump pump. A local by-law enacted in 1990 requires all new homes in Winnipeg to connect weeping tiles to a sump pit and pump system. At Mark Plumbing, we recognize the critical role sump pumps play in home maintenance within the city. Our services include both the installation and regular upkeep of these essential systems. To fully appreciate the value of sump pump maintenance, it’s essential to understand what a sump pump is, its protective benefits for your home, and the optimal practices for its maintenance.

Sump Pump Installation Winnipeg
Understanding the significance of a sump pump, it becomes clear why ensuring your home is equipped with one is crucial. For those in older homes, the addition of a backwater valve is a smart move; this device prevents sewage from backing up into your basement during periods of heavy groundwater influx. The risk without one is real: in the absence of a backwater valve, this overflow could find its way into your home through sinks or bathtubs, posing significant health and safety risks.
Incorporating both sump pumps and sump pits into your home’s defenses adds a robust layer of protection against water damage. Anyone who has endured the aftermath of a basement flood knows all too well the extensive damage and exhaustive cleanup efforts that follow. Mark Plumbing takes charge of the entire installation process for your backwater valve and sump pump. This includes obtaining all required permits, whether from the City of Winnipeg or your local municipal authority, designing the sump pit construction, selecting the most suitable equipment for your specific needs, and installing a sump pump capable of managing your home’s anticipated groundwater volume.
