Automatic backup protection when your primary pump fails or power goes out during storms.
You know that sinking feeling when the power goes out during a heavy storm. Your sump pump stops working right when you need it most. Your finished basement, your belongings, your peace of mind – all at risk.
A battery backup sump pump system changes everything. When your primary pump fails or loses power, the backup kicks in automatically. No more rushing to the basement with flashlights during storms. No more wondering if everything will be underwater by morning.
Your basement stays dry. Your belongings stay safe. You actually get to sleep through the storm instead of lying awake worrying about what you might find downstairs.
We’ve been protecting Geneva homes from basement flooding for years. We understand how spring rains and Fox River flooding patterns affect local basements. We’ve seen what happens when sump pumps fail during power outages – and we’ve helped hundreds of homeowners avoid that disaster.
Our licensed plumbers know which battery backup systems work best in Geneva’s soil conditions and weather patterns. We handle everything from system selection to professional installation, making sure your backup protection integrates seamlessly with your existing sump pump setup.
We start by evaluating your current sump pump setup and basement layout. Every home is different, and we need to understand your specific flooding risks and power requirements before recommending a battery backup system.
Next, we install the backup pump alongside your existing primary pump. The battery system connects to both pumps and monitors power status continuously. When your primary pump loses power or fails mechanically, the battery backup activates automatically – no intervention needed from you.
We test the entire system thoroughly before we leave. You’ll see exactly how the backup engages and how long the battery will run during an outage. We also show you the simple maintenance routine that keeps everything running reliably for years.

Your battery backup installation includes the backup pump, marine-grade battery, automatic switch controller, and all necessary plumbing connections. We handle permits, code compliance, and integration with your existing system.
We size the battery based on your basement’s pumping requirements and typical outage duration in Geneva. Most systems provide 8-12 hours of continuous operation, which covers the vast majority of power outages during storms.
You also get a complete walkthrough of system operation, maintenance schedule, and battery replacement timeline. We’re available for annual maintenance checks and emergency service if you ever need it. Your backup system comes with manufacturer warranty plus our installation guarantee.
