Many backup pump manufacturers overinflate their pump's capacity in terms of gallons pumped per hour and hours of running time - creating a false sense of security. For the first time, an independent laboratory has tested the leading retail backup pump systems; the results are clear: the Perma-Seal Backup Pump Systems are your BEST VALUE in backup pump protection!
