A backup pump is essential in Edmonton because most sump pump failures happen during storms when the power goes out.
A battery backup system protects your home when:

It’s one of the smartest basement protection upgrades you can make.

We thaw and clear frozen lines, install freeze-resistant lines, and prevent future blockages.
