Does a Sump Pump Have to be Vented?

insulate the piping.. that will stop and humid air in your basement touching the cold pvc of the vent, which causes it to condensate. Venting is requried by code in Ontario, Canada on a sewage sump pump only. Storm/ground water does not need to be vented; however, if your pit is air tight its probably a good idea. -- for full context, visit https://www.homeownershub.com/mainte...ed-489359-.htm |
