A blocked drain, leaking connection or failed condensate pump can cause water around the equipment. Cooling-coil icing and other sources are also possible. We trace the water before naming a part.
Yes, if a connected high-water safety switch interrupts the cooling circuit. That is one possible cause of a shutdown. Not every pump has that switch connected, so the pump and control circuit both need checking.
Sometimes. Debris or a stuck float may be serviceable when the motor, reservoir and switch are sound. We follow the pump instructions and test operation before recommending that you keep it.
There is no fixed service life that fits every installation. Water conditions, use and cleaning affect it. Leaks, a damaged reservoir, unreliable switching or a motor that will not discharge water call for assessment.
