Yes, you can generally still shower and use household plumbing fixtures while a sump pump system handles drainage, provided the wastewater from your shower does not drain into the sump pit itself. In standard residential plumbing, greywater from showers and bathroom sinks drains into the main sanitary sewer line or septic tank, completely separate from the exterior perimeter groundwater collected by the sump pit. Verification: Verify your home's plumbing layout to ensure bathroom greywater lines do not improperly tie into your interior sump basin.
