QUICK PSA FOR ANYONE IN THE PATH OF HURRICANE IDA If your pedestal sump pump is running continuously and is hot to the touch, hang a small fan from the rafters above it to cool it down and keep it from overheating, tripping or burning out. This is the first storm where my sump pump could not keep up with the inflow of water (old farmhouse basement leaks like sieve) BUT this is the first time I've had a sump pump running for 2 hours straight. Motor case was too hot to touch. Worried it would trip the thermal overload, or burn out. I quickly slung a 6" desk fan from the sump pump discharge pipe to blow cool air onto the motor. Seems to have saved the day. Motor is drawing fewer amps, has gone from too-hot-to-touch to warm-to-the-touch, AND seems to be pumping more effectively.
