Sump
Pump Battery Backup
Sump pump battery
backup is important because most sump pumps
are run on electricity. Electricity is not always guaranteed
to be working, especially during heavy thunder and electrical
storms.
A battery back
up sump pump should have a signal that “chirps”
at you when the battery is running low or there is a
problem that needs your attention. This is your signal
to check your pump and the battery backup sump
pump. Make sure your system isn’t clogged
and that the battery was properly plugged in so it could
charge.
Even with a good sump
pump battery backup, you are only winning half
the battle against the water in your basement. Without
a proper system to get the water to the pump, the sump
pump can’t remove water from all areas of the
basement.
For starters, the sump
pump and battery back up sump pump
need to be in the lowest area of your basement so that
the water can flow to the pump. Also you will need a
system to discharge the water away from your home and
it’s foundation. You will also need to be mindful
of the grade of your property as well as your neighbors.
Nothing could be worse than to have your neighbor beating
down your door in the middle of the night because your
discharge system has flooded their yard and/or basement.
This will definitely disqualify you from the “neighbor
of the year” award, as well as permanently disinvite
you from any neighborhood gatherings.
The best way to determine the
correct system and sump pump battery backup
for your home is to have a waterproofing professional
inspect your home. A professional will evaluate your
basement and foundation so they can design and install
a system that is right for you.
