What Is a Sump Pump?

A sump pump is a specific kind of pump and pumping system used to remove water that has collected in a basement, low-level area of a property, or anywhere that flooding or accumulation of water happens. The electrical pumps can be used below the waterline (submersible sump pump) to collect and pump the undesired water out of the damp or flooded location.
