What Makes Our Backup Sump Pumps so Unique
At Atlas Restoration, we know the importance of location for back-up sump pumps. Our pumps, unlike most others used by repair companies, are positioned outside the sump water. Positioning the backup pumps and floats outside the water prevents constant exposure to problematic elements such as mud, debris, and unclean water.
Where Other Repair Techniques Fail
A common mistake made in backup sump pump installation is their position above the main sump pump. Moreover, many of the average backup pumps often not have a suction pipe. They drain the sump pit's water only partially, creating more frequent starts, less durability, and shorter pumping cycles.
Another kind of error is the installation of a second pump inside a small pit. The problem here? This faulty repair will likely result in the trapping or entangling of primary or secondary floats, leaving both pumps not functioning properly, or not functioning at all.
And yet another problem common to conventional backup sump pump installation methods is the positioning of the backup pump inside, or directly above the main sump pump. As a result of this faulty installation, your sump pump's primary check valve is just inches above the main pump, open to heavy turbulence and endless fluctuations in pressure. This kind of stress on a check valve will cause breakage or holes in the valve, leading to the recycling of water through the main pump, straight down into your sump pit, and right into your basement.
