Guide · Sump / Well PumpConstant running means either the switch thinks the level is high or water really keeps arriving. Check for a stuck or tangled float, a leaking check valve sending the discharge column back into the basin, a running toilet or leaking fixture, and groundwater leaking into the basin. A pump left running wears out fast.
