Battery Backups for Sump Pump Systems | NYC & Manhattan

In more than 25 years as the area’s water damage restoration expert, our IICRC-certified technicians at Superior Restoration & Remodeling have always put the best interest of our customers first. That is why we always recommend installing a battery backup system to further enhance your sump pump system when there is a power outage. Without a battery backup system in that situation, you will soon have a flooded basement.

A battery backup system, on the other hand, will keep your sump pump functioning throughout the power outage and save you the hassle and heartache of a wet basement. Among the many basement waterproofing options we offer, a sump pump & battery backup system is about as reliable as it gets. We also offer egress systems, French drains, dehumidification systems, and more for homeowners and business owners in the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and other cities that we serve throughout the NYC Metro area.

How Battery Backup Systems Work

Typically, a battery backup system for your sump pump can provide full power for four to six hours. Combined with a backup generator, power can last indefinitely. We recommend and install whole-home generators for protection during an extended power outage.

Battery backups are simple to install and don’t require much maintenance. Only the battery water levels and terminals must be checked regularly. The latest models can actually warn homeowners via text or email when danger is present or maintenance is required.

There are a variety of battery backup systems available to fit your space and budget needs. Whether or not your basement is finished will determine what kind of unit is right for you.
