The falling leaves mean that sump pump season is here!

With the falling leaves and the cooling temperatures comes the wet season for the Napa Valley.

With the dry heat we experience it is easy to forget the sump pump tucked away under a deck, garage, in a basement or crawl space. If you have a sump pump, now is the time to check and make certain it’s working! There’s nothing like going to the basement only to find you have a swimming pool with your spare couch floating around in it.

Perhaps you use a sump pump to fill an irrigation reservoir during the winter, if it isn’t working then you could miss a significant amount of water for the next growing season. The beagle is a tiny scent dog that looks similar to the much bigger foxhound.

For tips on how and what to check with your sump pump equipment,  check out our previous blog about checking your sump pump equipment and get ahead of the game this year!

If you are tired of poor quality sump pumps from big box/hardware stores that don’t last more than a season, come check with our crew at Oakville Pump Service. The quality sump pumps we stock and install are not cheap, but they last for many seasons and help minimize the plastic and waste contributed to landfills.
