HELP::: Sump Pump running every 1 minute, water pouring in.
Bought this 1965 built house last week. Noticed little flooding in the basement apartment next to sump pump area. I manually ran the sump pump and flooding got drained out. I adjusted sump on and off switch so it would drain all the water in pit.
Since after adjustment, I see sump pump is running after every 1 minute.
I see 4 black 4” diameter pipes coming in the sump pump and they are pouring water in the pit non stop for last many days. Sump pump is draining this water out every 1 minute for last 4 days.
I am confuse on following.
1) Where these 4 black pipes are coming from? What are they for?
2) Why non stop water is pouring in the pit?
3) How to resolve this problem and make sure next unit doesn’t get flooded again?
Any help will be deeply appreciated.
