There are several benefits to using a pedestal sump pump:
- Easy access: Because the pump is mounted on a pedestal above the sump pit, it is easy to access for maintenance and repairs.
- Quiet operation: Pedestal sump pumps typically operate more quietly than submersible sump pumps, as the pump and motor are not submerged in the water.
- Long lifespan: Pedestal sump pumps have a longer lifespan than submersible sump pumps, as they are not constantly exposed to water and debris.
- Cost: Pedestal sump pumps are typically less expensive than submersible sump pumps.
- Versatility: Pedestal sump pumps can be used in a variety of situations, including in shallow sump pits or in areas where a submersible sump pump is not suitable.
Overall, a pedestal sump pump can be a good choice for homeowners who need a reliable and durable sump pump that is easy to access and maintain.
