Keep your basement dry during storms and outages with our professional battery backup sump pump installation.
You know that sinking feeling when the power goes out during a heavy storm. Your primary sump pump stops working right when you need it most. That’s exactly when basements flood and thousands of dollars in damage happens.
A battery backup sump pump system changes everything. When your main pump loses power or fails, the backup kicks in automatically. Your basement stays dry, your belongings stay safe, and you can actually relax during bad weather instead of worrying about what you’ll find downstairs.
The peace of mind alone is worth it. But when you factor in avoiding just one major flooding incident, a backup system pays for itself many times over.
We’ve been protecting Wheaton basements for years. We’ve responded to too many emergency calls where homeowners wished they had installed a battery backup system before the storm hit.
That’s why we focus on prevention rather than cleanup. Our team knows exactly which battery backup systems work best in our area and how to install them properly. We’re not just plumbers – we’re your neighbors who understand what Wheaton homeowners face during severe weather.
When you call us, you’re working with professionals who have seen every type of basement flooding scenario and know how to prevent them.
First, we assess your current sump pump setup and basement layout. Every home is different, so we determine the best battery backup system size and placement for your specific situation.
Next, we install the backup pump alongside your existing primary pump. The system includes a marine-grade battery, control panel, and all necessary connections. Everything is designed to activate automatically when your main pump stops working.
Finally, we test the entire system to make sure it works perfectly. We’ll show you the simple maintenance steps and explain how to monitor the battery charge. The whole installation typically takes a few hours, and then you’re protected 24/7.

Your battery backup sump pump installation includes the backup pump, deep-cycle marine battery, intelligent control system, and all necessary plumbing connections. We use reliable brands that we trust in our own homes.
The control system monitors your primary pump and automatically switches to battery power when needed. You’ll get audio and visual alarms if there are any issues, so you always know your system status.
We also provide clear instructions for basic maintenance and offer annual system checks to keep everything running smoothly. Most battery backup systems will run for 8-12 hours on a full charge, which covers the vast majority of power outages in our area.
