Professional battery backup sump pump installation that works when your power doesn’t.
You know that sinking feeling when the power goes out during a storm. Your primary sump pump stops working right when you need it most. Your finished basement, your kids’ playroom, those family photos stored downstairs – all at risk.
A battery backup sump pump changes everything. When the power cuts out, your backup system kicks in automatically. No more rushing to the basement with a flashlight, wondering if everything will be underwater by morning.
The peace of mind is immediate. You’ll actually sleep through storms instead of lying awake listening to the rain. Your basement stays dry, your belongings stay safe, and you avoid those devastating cleanup costs that can run into tens of thousands of dollars.
We’ve been protecting Cary homes from basement flooding for years. We understand how Illinois weather works – those sudden spring storms, the heavy rains that knock out power right when your sump pump needs to work hardest.
We’ve seen what happens when homeowners try to save money with cheap backup systems or DIY installations. The backup fails when it matters most, and they end up spending far more on water damage than they would have on proper installation.
That’s why we only install quality battery backup systems and do the job right the first time. Your basement flooding protection is too important to leave to chance.
We start by evaluating your current sump pump setup and basement layout. Every home is different, and the backup system needs to match your specific needs and pump capacity.
Next, we install the battery backup pump alongside your existing primary pump. The system monitors your main pump continuously. If it detects a failure or power loss, the battery backup activates instantly – usually within seconds.
The battery provides hours of protection, easily handling typical storm durations. We test everything thoroughly before we leave, showing you exactly how the system works and what to expect. You’ll know your basement is protected before the next storm hits.
