Don't use floor water sensors you don't want to wait for the water to be on the floor. Stop that from happening by have two identical cast iron pumps in 1 hole and rotate them. You should clean and service your pumps every year. Preventative maintenance is the key to success for anything in your home that is mechanical.

You should always have 2 pumps in a sump hole. The same pump y'd into each other. You use separate piggyback float sensors adjusted on the discharge pipe so the backup pump will only kick on if the primary fails. The backup pump does not necessarily have to be a battery backup setup. That would depend on your home and how and when it floods in electrical outages. I was a sump pump sales and service technician and project manager for over 5 years. Also you rotate the pumps when the main pump dies you swap it with the backup. Your backup pump is your emergency pump you want it to work just as well as your primary always. Don't ever use plastic back up pumps they are trash and can catch on fire I've personally seen this as a technician.

Nope you need a back up pump

Nope you need a back up pump

That terrible. Insurance is a scam

That fine print on page 856 is a Bich. Everything is a trap.

I’m so sorry for what you’re going through guys. It is absolutely despicable that your insurance company wouldn’t have your backs right now. Around here, when this sort of thing happens, we have a definite protocol that we generally observe; I’ll tell you about it, just in case that helps you, and I hope that it does: Assuming you’ve managed to stem the flow of water coming into the place, Get yourselves a pump, and a generator if you have to.Pump that right out. Sump pumps are our favourite around here. I don’t mind that you may need to invest in a little extra length of hose, to move it far enough away from your home. There’s a blower you can get that looks like a giant hairdryer, without the handle. It is electric. You just set that up Once you’ve got the water level, gone, and let it blow that moisture out of the Cement or concrete whatever you have your foundation made of. Then there’s treatment that you can apply to the foundation right away, to prevent, mould and mildew from forming. I hope to heaven, that the damage is not too severe, and not likely to recur.❤ ps. Where are your buddies right now, And your Church friends? Why is the house not infested with Neighbours and friends and church members, showing up with generators and pumps? Are they all trying to deal with their own similar issues, or do they just not know?

“Still cute tho” 😂😂😂 what a couple of creeps

Why does that water look pink? Is that off road diesel?

This is by far, one of the worst shorts I've seen...

One step and your done for

I used to use that to look for the man hole covers that the asphalt had covered

Record what in 1985 here were i live before i was born in 2010 1985 flood came along dumping almost 20 inches of rain in Virginia and West Virginia flooded my cow pasture and made my creek stop and spring stop flowing in the summer it’s heartbreaking 💔 for me cauldron I like useing my water pump to pump water from the creek into my yard where i use it and play in it 😂

And it was drywalled over?😮

Wtf

You need an app to hear or see the water run?

I thought this was real for a sec

Allstate is one of the worst insurance companies.

Yea

Why

Go buy a pump and help yourself

Pool party🎉

Home insurance only covers the gutters. Unless they are attached to your house. And you paid for them. Matter fact, they don’t cover gutters now.

Sump pump 1,2, and a back up in shed. Large gas trash pump 1000$ good to go

State Farm screwed me over as well, storm damage caved in my basement wall and they abandoned my claim to hydrostatic water pressure caused by the storm. They were not there for me.

I don't own a home anymore, but I did own a home for 20 years and I had water in the basement multiple times due to sump pump failures, glad I always had the basement rider on the policy. Never had a issue with claims.

Now I don't know what kind of policy you have been paying for nor do I know where the water is coming from but I would suggest calling your local janitorial company that deals with fire, flood and hazard cleanup. They can help you navigate the issue in a way that's most compatible with your insurance and likely won't even charge for the consultation/estimate.

Mad dangerous to be in that water

Insurance companies are up there with banksters

Cool don’t buy property in flood zones, assholes.

Shouldve built it yourself over a couple of years.
