Professional battery backup systems that keep your basement dry when your primary pump fails or power goes out.
You know that sinking feeling when the power goes out during a heavy rain. Your sump pump stops working right when you need it most. Your finished basement, your kids’ playroom, your home office – everything you’ve invested in sits vulnerable in the dark.
A properly installed battery backup sump pump changes that completely. When the power cuts out or your primary pump fails, your backup system kicks in automatically. No more rushing to the basement with a flashlight during storms. No more sleepless nights wondering if everything will be underwater by morning.
Your basement stays dry. Your belongings stay safe. You stay calm, knowing your backup system is handling business while you focus on what matters – keeping your family comfortable until the storm passes.
We’ve been protecting North Aurora homes from basement flooding for years. We understand how spring rains and summer storms affect homes in this area, especially with our proximity to the Fox River and local soil conditions.
We’re licensed Illinois plumbers who handle the permits, follow local codes, and install your battery backup system right the first time. No shortcuts, no surprises – just reliable protection when you need it most.
You’ll work with the same team from estimate to completion. We show up when scheduled, explain what we’re doing, and make sure you understand how your new system works before we leave.
We start by evaluating your current sump pump setup and basement layout. Every home is different, so we determine the best location and configuration for your battery backup system. We’ll explain what we found and recommend the right backup pump size and battery capacity for your specific needs.
Installation typically takes a few hours. We connect the battery backup pump to your existing discharge pipe, install the battery and charging system, and test everything to make sure it activates properly. Your backup system monitors your primary pump and automatically takes over when needed.
Before we finish, we walk you through how the system works, show you the battery maintenance basics, and make sure you’re comfortable with your new protection. You’ll have our contact information for any questions, plus warranty coverage on both the equipment and our installation work.
