Seasonal note
Frozen and burst pipes spike every January and February, and sump pumps get tested hardest during spring thaw and heavy spring rain — the two seasons that generate the most emergency calls.
Quick answers
Why does my sump pump fail during spring storms in Aurora?
Power outages during storms are the most common cause — a battery backup keeps the pump running even if the power goes out mid-downpour.
What causes frozen pipes in Aurora homes?
Pipes running through unheated crawlspaces, exterior walls, or attics are most at risk once temperatures drop below freezing for an extended stretch.
How long should a water heater last in Aurora?
Most tank units last 8–12 years — homes with older units are worth a proactive inspection before one fails and floods a basement.
