Sump Pumps and Battery Backups

Keep your basement dry when the spring rains come.

In the west suburbs, heavy spring rains and melting snow can push a lot of water toward your basement. Your sump pump is the main thing standing between that water and your floor. When it fails, it often fails during the worst storm.

Lech Plumbing installs and replaces sump pumps for homes in Warrenville, Wheaton, Glen Ellyn, Naperville, Winfield, and nearby towns.

Why Add a Battery Backup?

Big storms can knock out the power, and when the power goes out, a regular sump pump stops. A battery backup pump kicks on automatically and keeps pumping water out until the power comes back. It’s peace of mind, especially if your basement is finished.

Get Ready Before Spring

The best time to check your sump pump is before the rainy season starts. Signs it’s time for a new pump or a backup:

• The pump runs constantly, or not at all.

• It makes loud grinding or rattling noises.

• The pump is getting old.

• You’ve had water in the basement before.

• You don’t have a backup pump.
