09/16/2024 customer advised that they have a sump pump that is tripping the breaker. once on site the customer advised me the pumps where installed about 7 -8 years ago and recently just had re piping done. there were 2 pumps present and pump number one was the pump that was tripping the breaker. went to put the pump in hand and it's instantly kicking the break off. pump number 1 was running about 14-15 amps and while pump 2 was running 4-5 amps. I then put pump 1 in auto and it stills kicks the breaker. no vibration, no sign of propellers spinning ,no water movement. on pump number 2 it's doesn't kicks the breaker off and also I can feel and hearing water being suctioned up through the pipes. also the engineer advised me that this pump cycles very very slow barely pulling water. upon further observation I observed that while pump number 2 was on its slowly pumping the water of the pit.xheck valves seems to be in good condition and I hear it open and closing when the pump it turned

Hydro-Jetting Commercial Plumbing Call: 09/13/2024 Got jet and went to the job. We made a few runs with the jet going 10 feet further each time and pulling back under pressure as well. the pit became too difficult to empty so we could jet properly. One of the pumps is burned up and tripping the breaker. It the one closest to the panel, it is pulling 14 to 15 amps for a minute and then it pops the breaker while not moving any water. The other pump is running at 4 to 5 amps continually under a load and moving the water. Lorenzo would like this looked at as soon as possible.

08/12/2024 Worked with Mizzel and the camera checking on the drainage line to the "sump pit" down in the boiler room. We did some testing with water and finally decided that this line may benefit from a jetting. Lorenzo liked the idea, I told him we would get it scheduled.
