Backup
Sump Pump
A backup sump pump
is an important part of any sump pump system. You may
think one sump pump is enough. However that is not always
the case. To begin with, when do you experience the
worst of your water problems in your basement? When
it rains. What often accompanies rain? Thunder, lightning
and consequently, power outages. How will your sump
pump function without power?
With sump pump
backup systems, it is a good idea to have a
battery backup system that will kick on in the event
of a power outage. Furthermore, that backup system needs
to be from the same manufacturer as your sump pump itself.
You wouldn’t have a vehicle with Honda body, a
Chevy engine and a Ford transmission. It just wouldn’t
make sense and it wouldn’t function properly.
So, why would you risk an even bigger investment (your
house) with a pieced together sump pump system?
Backup sump pumps
are an essential part of backup systems. You need to
have an additional sump pump for a couple of reasons.
First off, what if the first pump can’t handle
the volume of water? A second pump on the backup system
can kick in and assist the first one with removing larger
volumes of water. Also, related to power outages, what
if there is some sort of surge or brown out that damages
your main pump? Even with a battery backup, if the pump
is damaged, it can’t work. That’s when the
second pump can kick on and save the day and your home’s
basement.
Wouldn’t you rather be
able to fall asleep to the sound of the raindrops
pitter pattering off your roof rather than staying
up all night bailing water out of your home? A properly
thought out and designed sump pump system with an
additional backup pump and backup power supply can
give you this much needed peace of mind. A professional
waterproofing consultant can help you design the system
for your home and make sure you stay high and dry.
