About Sump Pumps

Sump pumps are used in applications where excess water must be pumped away from a particular area. They generally sit in a basin or sump that collects this excess water, hence the name basin sump pump, or simply sump pump.  While most people are familiar with sump pumps due to their high level of residential use, “sump pumps” in this context purely refers to the industrial styles.
