Sewage and other gray water waste flow by gravity from your home into a sewage basin.&nbsp; The sewage is then pumped into the municipal sewer line.&nbsp; In this application a grinder type sewage pump is used.&nbsp; Grinder pumps reduce the solid waste into a slurry that more easily pumped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Where is the Sewer Pump?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Sewer pump installation is similar to that of a sump pump. The pump rests in a basin typically in the back yard and when needed, it removes the waste by forcing it up the pipes and out to the main sewer line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Do I Need a Sewer Pump?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Suppose your home has a basement with laundry, bathrooms, a sewer line, or any rooms with plumbing that are below grade level. In that case, you probably need a sewer pump. Without one, the risk of a sewage backup is exponentially higher. And sewage is not like a regular flood. Sewage is full of bacteria and is hazardous to you, your family, and your home and requires professional cleanup and restoration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of taking a chance and hoping for the best, act now and avoid a potentially dangerous and extremely costly sewage backup situation.
