This battery backup sump pump system is a second line of defense for a basement. It connects in parallel with an existing sump system without interfering with the main pump. It starts automatically when the main pump fails or the water level rises too high.
The DC pump moves up to 2,700 GPH at 0 ft lift and 1,900 GPH at 10 ft. Electronic water level sensors replace float switches, and dry-run protection is included. The housing is flame-retardant, the components are corrosion-resistant, and the electronics are sealed.
The controller has 9 LED indicators and dual water level sensors that track water level, battery, pump status and power supply. An audible alarm sounds for system faults, blown fuses, low battery and outages, and it has a mute/reset function. Built-in dual-band WiFi connects to the GeniLife App for real-time monitoring and alerts. During a power outage the system switches to battery power, then returns to AC power when it is restored.
