Back Up Sump Pump Systems

Installing a second back up sump pump that is battery powered in case the primary pump fails should be considered in homes, especially those with finished basements.  Setting up a battery backup sump pump system involves purchasing one of our Peak Flow sump pump components.

We recommend that back up sump pump systems be tested monthly. Homeowners can easily do this by unplugging the primary sump pump just after a rainstorm, allowing the sump pit to fill, and verifying the backup sump pump system activates and empties the sump pump pit.
