New to sump pumps, musty smell?
What about it?
A few months ago I got a sump installed in basement to deal with foundation water issues. This is my first time ever having/dealing with a sump.
Ever since it was installed it seems to be giving off a musty smell. The furnace is located near the sump so any smell from the basement comes to the whole house. I have a washing machine next to it that my wife swears the smell may be coming from but I have my doubts. I have a dehumidifier hose draining into it constantly so I don’t believe stagnant water is an issue.
Attached is a picture. Anyone have any pointers or advice you can give? Appreciate it!
