Why Battery Backup Matters
Your basement floods during heavy storms. Heavy storms knock out power. So exactly when you need your sump pump most, your primary pump may be useless.
A battery backup sump pump solves this—it’s a secondary pump with its own power supply. When the power goes out, the backup kicks in. Battery backup is especially critical for homes in Swampscott, Marblehead, and other coastal communities where nor’easters bring both flooding rain and power outages.
Signs Your Sump Pump Needs Attention
- Pump runs constantly or cycles rapidly
- Strange noises—grinding, rattling, humming
- Pump doesn’t activate when you pour water into the pit
- Visible rust or corrosion
- Pump is more than 7-10 years old
