Stop Basement Flooding with Our Second Pump Installation

Backup sump pumps provide extra protection for homes during power outages or when heavy water flow puts stress on the main system. Adding a second pump is especially helpful in these situations:

  • The main sump pump is the only system keeping the basement or crawl space dry.
  • The pump operates constantly and does not shut off.
  • Past flooding or water damage has affected the basement or crawl space.
  • The primary pump makes unusual noises or struggles to remove water quickly.

Extra Protection from Flood Damage with Secondary Sump Pumps

Backup sump pumps protect basements, belongings, and the structure of a home. Installing a secondary pump reduces the risk of long-term water damage and keeps indoor spaces safer and drier.

Additional benefits include protecting the foundation from water damage. Basement walls are prevented from peeling or cracking. Overall, the water impact is reduced. Mold and mildew growth are limited. Indoor humidity and air quality are improved. Insects and termites are kept away from the home.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I maintain a secondary pump after installation?
Regular maintenance includes inspecting the pump, cleaning the sump pit, and testing the system. Checking the battery backup and discharge line makes sure the pump operates smoothly when needed, reducing the risk of water damage.
Will a secondary pump prevent all basement flooding?
A secondary pump significantly reduces flooding risks by backing up the primary pump. While it provides extra protection, extremely severe water events may still cause water to enter the basement, highlighting the need for proper system installation.
Do secondary pumps need a separate discharge line?
A dedicated discharge line is recommended to safely move water away from the foundation. This prevents backups, minimizes flooding risk, and ensures that both primary and secondary pumps work efficiently during heavy water events.
