Sump Pits and Sump Pumps - All You Need to Know

Please SUBSCRIBE to my KZbin channel! In this video I describe sump pits and sump pumps in all their glorious detail. I'm a home inspector, and I've inspected thousands of sump pits and sump pumps. I share all I've learned in 15 years in a short period of time. As a bonus I share a story, a not to be forgotten story, about one sump pump that I inspected.
Here's a list of what you'll learn in this video:
• What is a sump pit
• What homes have sump pits and why
• What is a sump pump
• How water gets into a sump pit
• When is a sump pump needed
