Basement Watchdog redundant battery backed sump pump- thumbs up

Question: Had a 3hr power outage last night during a horrendous thunderstorm. The basement watchdog battery backed redundant sump pump did it's thing! I've had one installed for years but this is the first time it was needed and activated, and it did the job nicely! Had it not been there, I'd have had some carpet to replace for sure.



Answer: -Maybe you should consider a large scale UPS to pick up truly essential loads for your house like the sump pump, the freezer, and the ice box. Alternatively, some kind of manual pump (like boaters use to bail out boats) can also save the day when the power goes out.> -Glad to hear it worked great as I also have one. Fortunately I have never had the need for it to kick on but it sure is great insurance.
