Basement Waterproofing - How Our Battery-Backed Sump Pump Can Make a Difference for Central Kentucky Homes

Does Your Home Lose Power Often?

Power outages and heavy rainfalls are highly correlated, and that's why it's so important your waterproofing system has a back up plan for when the power goes out. Read this short article to learn why we highly recommend our UltraSump 4 battery backed sump system.

The UltraSump 4: Not Just for Power Outages

What makes the UltraSump 4 truly stand out is that it’s a completely separate pump, independent from your main system. This pump is equipped with a heavy duty battery, that is super powerful. This battery backed pump is installed above the primary pump in the sump liner, ready to activate at a moment’s notice. If water rises past the main pump and triggers the UltraSump’s switch, the backup pump kicks on automatically, notifying you that the primary system has failed. Whether it’s a power outage, mechanical problem, or simply an overwhelmed main pump, the UltraSump 4 has your back.

Key Features of the UltraSump 4:

• Can discharge up to 12,000 gallons of water at a 10-foot lift on a fully charged battery. (The “lift” refers to how high the discharge line needs to elevate the water.)
• Automatically recharges when connected to power.
• Equipped with a TimeMachine data logger that stores up to ten years of diagnostics, including pump cycles, battery health, humidity, and temperature readings.
• Features an audible alarm to alert you when the main pump has failed.

With unpredictable weather in Central Kentucky, having the peace of mind that the UltraSump 4 provides is invaluable.
