The Difference Between Sump Pumps and Ejector Pumps.

Is there a difference between sump pumps and ejector pumps? There are plenty of both in homes around The Southern Fox Valley in Illinois. You can be sure that Scott Swanson, the owner of Bee Plumbing, services and replaces BOTH sump pumps and ejector pumps.

A sump pump –

1. Collects water and stores it.

2. When it reaches its capacity a float switch activates.

3. It is then eliminated from your basement via a discharge pipe.

An ejector pump…is generally connected to your storm drain in order to deliver water away from the house. The lid on the ejector pump closes to protect your home from harmful chemicals.
