What Is a Sump Pump Battery Backup System
Battery backups for sump pumps are battery are power control systems designed to use a battery to keep your sump pump running when the power goes out. The system is not designed to replace the function of your main sump pump system in case of failure but allows the pump to continue functioning at full capacity during a power failure.
Why are Battery Backup Systems Important
Having a battery backup system for your sump pump is crucial for ensuring your home stays protected from water damage. Modern sump pumps are built to be tough and durable, and with regular inspections and maintenance, mechanical failures are relatively rare. In fact, with proper care, your sump pump can last up to ten years. However, the most common reason for sump pump failure isn’t mechanical—it’s a power outage. This is where a battery backup system steps in, providing reliable operation when the power goes out, like during a thunderstorm.
