Frequently asked questions

How long will a battery backup sump pump run during a power outage?

The run time depends on the battery's capacity and how frequently the pump needs to activate. A typical deep-cycle marine battery can provide several hours to a full day of intermittent pumping, safeguarding your basement until power is restored.

Can I install a battery backup sump pump myself?

While some homeowners may attempt DIY installation, professional installation ensures the system is correctly integrated with your existing plumbing and electrical systems, adheres to the Michigan Plumbing Code, and is properly permitted and inspected, which is crucial for reliability and insurance purposes.

What kind of maintenance does a battery backup sump pump require?

Regular maintenance includes checking the battery's water levels (if it's a lead-acid type), testing the system periodically to ensure it activates, and keeping the sump pit clear of debris. Our technicians will provide specific maintenance guidelines during installation.

Is a battery backup sump pump necessary if I have a generator?

Even with a generator, a battery backup sump pump provides an immediate and automatic solution during power interruptions, bridging the gap until your generator starts or if it experiences a malfunction. It offers an additional layer of protection against flooding.
