Battery Backup Sump Pumps
The worst storms throughout the area can lead to power outages. Without access to power, your sump pump won’t be able to direct water away from your home, which can lead to flooding. Installing a battery backup sump pump will ensure that your sump pump will still work, even if your power goes out.

What is a Battery Backup Sump Pump?
Most sump pumps are connected directly to your home’s electrical system. However, the pump can’t do its job if there’s a problem with the power. A battery backup sump pump is designed to kick in when the power goes out, providing extra protection to keep your basement dry in the event of a power outage. Here in the northeastern part of the country, we are prone to power outages during thunderstorms and other severe weather conditions, making having a battery backup important.
How it Works
In a nutshell, a battery backup sump pump includes a battery that is charged by your home’s electrical system when the power is on. When the power goes out, the battery takes over and powers the pump until the electricity comes back on. Once the power is restored, the battery begins charging again.
It’s important to note that a battery backup sump pump is not a replacement for your primary sump pump. Instead, it’s meant to provide an extra level of protection during a power outage.
The Benefits Of A Battery Backup Sump Pump
Now that you understand a sump pump can help keep your basement dry let’s explore some of the benefits of having a battery backup sump pump in place. These backup systems ensure you’ll have the constant water removal from your basement that you need.
Simple Installation
Did you know a battery backup for your sump pump is easy to install? It’s a simple attachment that goes directly on the sump pump you have installed. No digging or trenching is required. This means you can have the protection you need without going through a complicated or messy installation process.
Stay Prepared
Even if your primary pump fails, a battery backup sump pump will be there to take over and keep your basement dry. This gives you peace of mind knowing your home is protected no matter what happens. Our experts ensure it’s installed properly, so it is always charged and ready to go.
Greater Power
You now have the advantage of your sump pump having additional power to help during times of extreme flooding. Some battery backup models offer as much as 50% more additional power. This means your basement has a better chance of staying dry even during the most severe weather conditions.
Seamless Protection
Our battery backup sump pumps are designed to provide seamless protection for your home. In the event of a power outage, the backup system will take over and keep your basement dry. Once power is restored, the backup system will automatically disconnect, and your primary sump pump will take over.
