Seal-Tite has over 40 years of experience in the industry when it comes to fixing leaky Roanoke basement for good. We realize how frustrating of a problem it can be to have a basement that leaks every time it rains – and we are here to put a stop to this problem! Even if you already have a sump pump installed, you still need to get a battery backup sump pump installed for extra protection against basement flooding. Did you know that if your primary pump malfunctions or goes off because of a power outage, your basement will be exposed to many different types of moisture? It’s true. When you have a backup sump installed, you can rest easy knowing that it will be activated in case the main pump fails!
How do battery backup sump pumps work exactly? To understand how it works, one must first know how sump pumps work in general. A sump pump is a small device that is installed in the basement or crawl space of a home. Its main purpose is to pump out water that might accumulate during wet seasons to prevent flooding. Being powered by the house’s electrical supply, if a blackout occurs, the pump would stop working – hence, the need for a backup pump.
This is the reason why backup pumps are ran off of batteries. When the power fails, your main pump fails, too. A battery operated sump pump will then activate and continue with the job, thus leaving you with a water-free basement, even in the middle of a thunderous storm.
Put a Stop to Basement Flooding in Your Roanoke, VA Home
If you don’t have a backup pump yet, now is the time to have one installed. Contact Seal-Tite and have them check out your basement to determine what kind of pump you need. A professional can also install the pump and make sure it works perfectly in conjunction with your main pump.
A sump pump gives you peace of mind during the rainy season, but a backup sump pump reinforces that peace of mind by giving you virtually nothing to worry about when it comes to protecting the lowest area of your home. Aside from being useful during blackouts, a backup pump will also give you a second layer of protection if the main pump ever stops working.
