Heavy rain, melting snow, and excess groundwater can all contribute to basement water problems. If you’ve noticed water collecting in your basement after storms, installing a sump pump may help reduce the risk of future flooding.
A sump pump is designed to collect and remove water from a sump pit, directing it away from your home’s foundation. When properly installed as part of an appropriate drainage system, a sump pump can help protect your basement from water intrusion and potential damage.
Choosing the Right Sump Pump for Your Basement
A popular pump that we found to be reliable and efficient is the ST1033. This 1/3 HP pump moves water at 2770 GPH at 10′ capacity. The manufacturer’s 3-year warranty will give you peace of mind that your home is protected from water damage.
Why Consider a Battery Backup Sump Pump?
Have peace of mind installed with one of our Pro Series Backup Sump Pumps! Sump pumps typically run on electricity, and when there is flooding or power outages, this can sometimes cause issues with regular sump pumps. However, our Pro Series Backups are battery powered so they won’t fail, even if there’s a power outage.
By investing in our Pro Series Pumps, you’ll get the following benefits:
- High performance
- Protect valuables, including carpet, drywall, and tile
- Protection against flooding caused by a power outage
- Protection against primary pump failure
