Sump pump cycles on and off every 30 minutes without lowering water level, and homeowner cannot diagnose the issue due to sealed pit and lack of expertise.

Workarounds Described

• researched online but couldn't find exact issue
• listens for water pumping sound to diagnose
• considers removing sealed pit cover to inspect but hesitates due to radon seal

Implied Software Gaps

• sumppump diagnostic software that analyzes cycle patterns and water level changes to identify short cycling causes
• remote monitoring app that alerts if pump runs but no water is discharged
