Sump pumps & battery backups questions
Common questions.
Still have a question?
Jamie answers every call and request within one business day.
Do I need a sump pump battery backup?
If your basement depends on a sump pump, a battery backup keeps water moving when the power goes out or the main pump fails, which is often during the worst storms.
How long does a battery backup run?
It depends on the battery and how often the pump cycles. For long outages, a standby generator is the more complete answer.
Why is my sump pump running constantly?
It could be a stuck float, a failed check valve, a pump that’s too small, or a lot of water coming in. Jamie can find the cause.
Can a generator power my sump pump?
Yes. A properly sized standby generator can keep your sump pump running along with the rest of the circuits you choose.
