FAQs

1. Can you flush toilet paper and wipes if you have a sewage pump?

Toilet paper is generally safe, but flushable wipes and other hygiene products should be avoided—even if labeled “flushable.” These materials don’t break down quickly and can clog the pump or damage the impeller, leading to costly repairs or system failure.

2. How often should sewage pumps be serviced or cleaned?

Sewage pumps should be inspected and cleaned at least once a year, or more frequently if the system handles heavy use. Regular maintenance includes checking for clogs, testing the float switch, and cleaning buildup that can reduce efficiency or cause premature wear.

3. Are sewage pumps noisy? What sounds are normal?

A low humming or gentle whooshing during operation is normal, but loud grinding, clanking, or banging noises indicate trouble, often due to debris in the impeller, a worn motor, or loose components. Quiet operation is typical, so anything louder warrants a check-up.

4. Can a sewage pump run dry or burn out if the basin is empty?

Yes, running a sewage pump dry can cause overheating and damage since these pumps rely on the fluid for cooling. Most pumps have float switches that activate only when waste reaches a certain level, but if that switch fails, dry running can quickly burn out the motor.

5. Can heavy rain or flooding affect a sewage pump system?

Absolutely—flooding can overwhelm sewage systems, especially if sump and sewage lines share drainage paths. Excessive water inflow may lead to pump overwork, failure, or even backflow, so having a backup pump or battery-operated system can protect during storms.
