Residential Ejector Pump Services to Keep Your Home Safe
If your basement bathroom, laundry area, or utility sink is located below your home’s main sewer line, you need more than just gravity to get wastewater out. That’s where ejector pumps come in. At Ace Plumbing & Sewer, we specialize in residential ejector pump installation, repair, and replacement services that ensure safe, efficient waste removal from below-grade plumbing systems. With decades of experience serving the western suburbs of Chicago, we deliver expert solutions backed by local code knowledge, transparent pricing, and dependable service.
What Is an Ejector Pump — and Do You Need One?
Ejector pumps are essential for any home with plumbing fixtures located below the level of the main sewer or septic line. Unlike sump pumps, which only handle groundwater, ejector pumps move both greywater and solid waste from lower levels to your main sewer line or septic system.
Common residential setups requiring ejector pumps include:
Basement bathrooms with toilets and showers
Laundry rooms or slop sinks in finished basements
Utility rooms with appliances that discharge wastewater
In-law suites or finished lower levels with kitchens or baths
If you’re planning to finish your basement or already dealing with poor drainage, frequent clogs, or slow flushing in lower-level fixtures, an ejector pump may be a must-have addition or upgrade.

Our team installs complete residential ejector pump systems that include sealed pits, venting systems, check valves, and high-quality discharge piping.
