This pump is about 8 inches below my septic flash. It started dripping water from the pipe that contains the electrical supply for the pump. The marine smells horrible!! What has develop to this thing? Hope you guys own some advise for me... The plumber told me I needed an electrician formerly he could come!!
If the temperature is varying where you live, it could be condensate forming inside the conduit. When heat up air meet cooler air, condensate forms and will run out of vertical piping.
You probably need a investigational gasket/seal where the wires enter the pump.
Look for a plumber that will come out and transport a look at what is going on. Most plumbers are able to flip a breaker formerly doing work.
Answers: i am assuming the pump is in a sewer pit outside and the river is dripping into your basement through the tubing carrying the electrical power wires out to your pump....this would indiocate that in that coould be a few possible problems...1 make sure breaker is not tripped..2 the floats that turn the pump on and sour could be bad...3 pump could be bleak... any good plumber can turn the breaker stale to the pump....now he might want you to own the electrician to check the floats and see if the pump is grounded before he starts to dismantle everything....but even after you will have to quit using any river and have the pit pumped out since either the electrician or plumber could do any looking after on your sewer pump...
