Prepare your Sump Pump for Storm Emergencies

The hurricane season has started. One of last year’s major storms, Sandy, hit in November, so the next three months are critical in being prepared if a storm hits here. One of the first things to put in place is an emergency back-up system for your sump pump. Major storms usually mean power outages. If your power doesn’t work, neither will your sump pump. Your basement can quickly fill up with water. Now is a good time to invest in a battery-powered back-up sump pump. This is just a practical as a flashlight when the power is out during a storm with heavy rains. It will keep your sump pump working until power is restored.
