Grinder Pump Problems That Require Repairs

Our trustworthy technicians inspect numerous issues with grinder pumps that require repairs. Two of the most common ones we encounter are clotting and blockages.

With clotting, small pieces of debris get caught in the pump. This can lead to buildups, which can wreck your pump.

If you have a blockage caused by debris, it can interfere with the floater device and can cause your tank to turn on unnecessarily – or fail to turn on at all.

If you suspect you have either of these issues with your system, call our technicians at Rocket Rooter Plumbing for services.
