The pump moves it. The route decides where it goes.

Sump Discharge Routing

A sump pump can do its job correctly and still create a problem if the discharge sends water back toward the house. Discharge routing focuses on the exterior path after the pump so collected water is carried to a more appropriate location.

When it makes sense

A focused service for a specific part of the problem.
