Help!! Water is constantly flowing into one of the drain pipe that go to the basin of my sump pump which cause the sump pump to go on everything 30 seconds. I don't know where the water source from this drain pipe coming from. Water keep flowing to the basin even if there no rain and the ground is dry as hell.

Also, should the basin have holes? One of my basin have 2 or 3 holes about half inch in diameter and water is constantly flowing through it and into the basic which also cause it to go off every minute or so.

Any help would greatly appreciated.

Steven Turn off water to the house then go look at your water meter and see if it moves.
