Battery Backup Installation

Without an effective sump pump, water may begin to accumulate in your basement or crawl space long before you are even aware of an issue. But a sump pump from Everdry Waterproofing can prevent such a problem. A sump pump will:

• Prevent flooding from rainwater
• Protect against sewage backups
• Help maintain low relative humidity levels
• Reduce the risk of mold and mildew growth
• Improve indoor air quality
• Minimize risk of structural decay
• Reduce the risk of animal infestation
• Minimize potential electrical damages

Homeowners throughout Wisconsin need a sump pump to protect against damage during harsh winter seasons and rainy springs. This is especially true for those who live in houses on flood-prone lots or have previously had flooding problems. But simply having a sump pump is not enough. You need peace of mind knowing your mechanism will work when you need it most. Among the reasons your sump pump may fail are:

• Too small to handle significant water flow
• Material defects
• Ineffective float switches
• Motor breakdowns

But the most common reasons sump pumps stop working are power outages. This is particularly concerning because significant storms that cause such outages are often accompanied by heavy rainfall that may lead to moisture-related damage to your home.

It is essential to regularly check your sump pump to ensure it is in proper working order. The professionals at Everdry Waterproofing can help by providing maintenance services and repairs as necessary. You can check to see if your sump pump is working by slowly pouring water into it until it begins to run. If it is working correctly, the water will recede until it is at the correct level. If this does not happen, you need to call our experts.

Everyone should have a sump pump battery backup to ensure home safety. Everdry Waterproofing is proud to provide sump pump battery backups for homeowners in Milwaukee, WI and throughout the surrounding area. Battery backup systems are especially important because weather issues that cause power outages often pose flooding threats. Whether thick snowstorms in the dead of winter are the culprit or heavy rainfall in the spring is causing problems, you need a safeguard to keep your home and family safe.

You can add a battery backup to the existing sump pump in your home to protect against power outages of all varieties. But we recommend requesting a consultation from our professionals to help you determine whether adding a battery backup or installing a new battery backup sump pump is right for your circumstances. In addition to protecting against power outages, battery backup sump pumps will protect against sump pump malfunctions and provide extra protection during heavy rainfalls.

If your home has no power, your sump pump will be entirely reliant on its backup battery system. Therefore, the capacity of the battery will determine how long the mechanism will last. Another contributing factor is whether it is running continuously or intermittently. On average, sump pumps using battery backup for operation will last for roughly four to five hours.
