COLDWATER, MI (WTVB)- Officials with the Coldwater Board of Public Utilities are asking residents that if they are using a sump pump due to high water, make sure it is hooked up correctly and is not discharging into your sanitary sewer system.
Doing so could potentially cause a severe and stinky sewer backup in your home.
Not only can this cause detrimental damage, it is illegal.
If you have questions regarding proper sump pump use or any other questions on your water lines, call the CBPU Water Department at (517)279-4805.
