If your home includes a basement bathroom, laundry area, or lower-level plumbing, an ejector pump plays a crucial role in keeping everything flowing properly. These specialized pumps help move wastewater uphill and away from fixtures that sit below your home’s main sewer line. But like any mechanical system, ejector pumps can fail without warning—putting your home at risk of messy backups and costly damage. At R.S. Andrews, we provide tailored ejector pump services in Atlanta to restore reliability to your plumbing system and peace of mind to your household.
Is Your Ejector Pump Showing These Symptoms? Call Us
Ejector pumps work hard behind the scenes, but when they start failing, the warning signs can be anything but subtle. If you notice any of the following issues, it may be time to call the professionals at R.S. Andrews:
Unusual noises: Loud grinding, rattling, or buzzing sounds could signal a motor issue or internal damage.
Foul odors: Persistent sewage smells coming from your basement or lower levels often point to a leaking or malfunctioning pump.
Slow drainage: If basement toilets, sinks, or laundry tubs are draining slowly, your ejector pump may not be moving wastewater effectively.
Frequent cycling: Pumps that turn on and off too often—or run continuously—may be struggling to keep up or have a faulty float switch.
Visible wastewater backups: Sewage pooling around floor drains or in basement fixtures is a red flag that your pump needs immediate attention.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does an ejector pump work in a basement?
An ejector pump is designed to move wastewater from lower levels of a home, such as a basement, up to the main sewer or septic line. It collects wastewater in a basin and activates when the water reaches a certain level, pumping it out with enough force to overcome gravity. This makes it essential for basement bathrooms, laundry rooms, or any plumbing below the main sewer line.
What are the signs that my ejector pump is failing?
Warning signs include strange noises, frequent cycling, foul odors, or water backing up from drains. A failing ejector pump may also cause your basement plumbing fixtures to drain slowly or not at all. Ignoring these symptoms can lead to sewage backup and serious property damage.
How often should I have my ejector pump serviced?
It’s recommended to have your ejector pump professionally inspected at least once a year. Regular maintenance can help identify worn parts, clogs, or issues with the float switch before they cause failures. Routine service can extend the pump’s lifespan and keep your plumbing system running smoothly.
Can an ejector pump handle solid waste?
Yes, ejector pumps are specifically built to handle solid waste and sewage from toilets, unlike sump pumps, which only manage clean water. They are equipped with powerful motors and impellers that can break down and move waste efficiently. It’s important, however, to avoid flushing items that could clog or damage the system.
