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.

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.


I just wish the one in this house was installed as correctly as I
installed the one in the house I sold. I need to fix that-- they
didn't put in a check valve, they ran a separate flex line to the
outside of the house, no hole at the bottom of the line to drain the
water to prevent air lock...

But all the same it seemed to work!
