What Is a Sewage Ejector Pump?

Gravity does much of the work for most sewage systems, bringing drain wastewater to the septic line. However, for homes with sewage removal needs downhill from the main sewer or septic line (such as a basement or below-grade bathroom or laundry room), your system needs extra help to move sewage upward and out of your home. This is where a sewage ejector pump comes in.

A sewage ejector pump helps push waste against gravity to remove it safely and hygienically from your home. They operate within a below-grade sump basin, typically holding about 30 gallons of waste from lower-level laundry rooms or bathrooms. Wastewater flows into the basin through drain lines, and as the water level rises, a float on the pump lifts. When it reaches a specific height, the pump is activated, pushing waste upward out of the basin to the septic line or sewer for proper disposal. Without one, homes run the risk of wastewater and sewage accumulating in your home’s lower fixtures, leading to clogs, backups, foul odors, and rampant bacterial growth.

Signs of Sewage Pump Issues

It’s normal to be unsure what is and isn’t normal for your sewage ejector pump. If you notice any of these red flags, contact the experts at Prime Plumbing.

  • Frequent pump cycling: The sewage ejector pump is designed to stop when wastewater returns to the correct level. Failure to do so indicates a problem.
  • Slow drains: This can indicate that your sewage ejector pump is struggling to handle its workload.
  • Failure to turn on: This may indicate a problem with the float or another unseen problem.
  • Foul odors: This can be a sign that accumulated waste is not being efficiently removed from your sump basin.

    The plumber, who came out to assess the issue was great at communicating and keeping us up-to-date on the process at every step.

    Worked with Garrett and Jake at Prime Plumbing for a main water line leak. I was so impressed with how kind, knowledgeable, concerned and friendly they both were. Garrett handled everything inside. Was patient with his work. Took great care in cleaning up after himself and explaining everything he did. Even adjusting my water pressure and making future recommendations on items to address and look out for in the future. Jake handled the outside. I was most nervous about my front yard needing to be trenched (I have a beautiful Japanese Maple and rock garden right in the path) and Jake was able to manipulate perfectly between the two minimizing any unnecessary damage. And once the water main was replaced he filled the dirt back in and stamped it down, laid grass seed and hay down. Jake took the time and attention for my front yard to minimize any future work I would need to do. I was genuinely impressed with my entire experience with this team. And they were able to complete the work in the same day (without rushing). They are just that good at their jobs. I recommend Prime Plumbing for any underground plumbing needs! Great team! Great experience!

    Prime plumbing once again provided 10/10 service! Had them replace filters and drain water heater. Ernie and Hayleigh were on time, highly professional and explained the entire process. I’ve used Prime Plumbing for numerous projects and plan to use the for the future ones. I highly recommend Ernie and Hayleigh. If you need any plumbing work done, I wouldn't call no one else besides these guys.
