How does the horsepower of a sump pump impact its performance?

A higher horsepower pump can handle more water and has a higher discharge flow rate. This is important if you live in an area prone to heavy rainfall or have a large basement to protect. However, a higher horsepower pump will also consume more energy.

Which type of sump pump should I choose?

The type of sump pump you need will depend on the size of your sump pit and the volume of water you need to remove. A pedestal sump pump might be sufficient for smaller basements with occasional water issues. A submersible sump pump might be the best choice if you live in an area with frequent heavy rains or have a large basement.
