  • The most important but most overlooked step of a sump pump installation is the weep hole.
    If the sump pump already already has a manufactured weep hole, why should you drill your own? We go over this in great explanation in this video giving real world demonstration and views as to what exactly a weep hole is and why you should drill one.
    For more great info, check out our other videos on this channel or visit our webpage at www.CallSmedley.com
    As always, thanks for watching as we aim to bring you pluming videos in a way you've never seen before!

    I don't think I've ever seen a broom in an electricians van. Kneeling on a cut piece of wire really wakes you up. Thank you for sharing your knowledge

    Came for the sump pump content, stayed for the shots taken at sparkies!!
    In all seriousness, you do a great job of explaining concepts -- thanks for the content!

    Shot coffee out my nose over that closing comment. Actually, Electricians use the “boot broom” method, just need to find the closest floor register, lift the vent grille and finish up with a carefully aimed shuffle.

    Totally agree. The messiest sub I have is definitely the sparky

    the check valve in my sump was installed a few inches above the sump. Can that cause a problem?

    • @SmedleyPlumbing
      @SmedleyPlumbing  8 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Nope. You should be good as long as there is a weep hole between the pump and the check valve.

    Dear Mr. Smedley, I'm an Electrician and I take deeeep offense to your accusation that we do not clean up after ourselves!! I may also be triggered and outraged. Yes, I do know what a broom is. I think I may have one somewhere in storage.

      And I have no doubt it will stay there until you make the helper go get it.

    7:40 to all you contractors out there actually (Except you guys that is). Septic contractors were called back here to pick up their coke cans, pizza boxes and pvc off-cuts they had thrown in our hedge! Really...
