Sump pumps are less common in Southern California than in wetter parts of the country, but homes with basements, crawl spaces or low lots near a hillside still rely on them. They tend to fail when they've sat idle and the first big storm arrives, so a test before the rainy season is worth the few minutes it takes.

Half of the homes in Bell Canyon were built before about 1983. That era means mostly copper supply lines and plastic drains. Some homes from the late 1970s to mid 1990s used polybutylene pipe, which has a history of failing and is worth checking for.
