"We would like to thank Affordable Radon Services LLC for the work that was done in our home for radon remediation. Authur and Jose did an amazing job and were very professional the work looks amazing but what is even better the radon is now at a great and healthy level. For months and maybe the past 2 years we felt drained of energy so we started looking into what could potentially cause low levels of energy for us but also seemed to be impacting our overall health. We live in Commerce City Colorado - Nick came out and set up the initial radon tester and site survey a day later he came back and gave us the results very high 8.7 and dangerous levels. He made some recommendations with the barrier seal and plan for the remediation. A few days later Jose and Authur showed up early in the morning and we could not be happier with the excellent work done. Radon level is now below 1.0 and energy levels have returned to normal, we feel healthier, can breathe and get better rest. Thanks again "

Most residential pumps draw approximately 1,300 to 2,900 watts when they first start, then settle at roughly 800 to 1,050 watts during normal operation. The exact number depends on the motor’s horsepower and how often the float switch tells the pump to run. Even at the high end, the electricity cost is minor compared with the expense of cleaning up a flooded basement.
Grab a ruler and an empty 18‑inch‑wide pit. During a steady rain, time how much the water rises in one minute. Multiply that depth (in inches) by 60 to calculate gallons per hour, then add 50% for safety. If the result tops 2,100 gallons per hour—about 35 gallons a minute—you’ll need a 3/4‑horsepower unit. Anything lower, and a 1/3- or 1/2-horsepower pump should do the trick.
Loud rattling, constant cycling, or shuddering vibrations are the pump’s way of telling you it’s on its last legs. Musty smells, higher electric bills, and visible rust are other red flags. If the unit is 10 years old or older and exhibits any of these symptoms, replace it before the next heavy rain turns your basement into a wading pool.
You don’t have to hire a licensed plumber, but you should still bring in someone who installs sump pumps for a living—whether that’s a plumber, basement‑waterproofing specialist, or experienced handyman. They know the local codes, can wire the pump safely, and will test the system before they leave. Skipping professional help might void the warranty and could leave you with a pump that fails when you need it most.
Not every basement needs a pump, but if your home sits in a floodplain, has a high water table, or has ever taken on water during a storm, a sump pump is inexpensive insurance. For basements that only struggle with condensation or the occasional damp spot, sealing cracks and improving drainage may be all that is needed.
