A homeowner from Faribault, MN, was dealing with an outdated sump system that was on her last nerve. The homeowner was concerned that if she didn't do something about the old system soon, she would be left with a mess in her basement come the first melt of spring. She decided to search for crawl space repairs near Faribault, MN and quickly found American Waterworks. She signed up for her FREE estimate, and several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Ryan M, was out to the home.
Ryan completed his inspection and, when he finished, informed the homeowner that he believed the basement could benefit from replacing the old system with our TripleSafe sump pump, the most reliable pump in our lineup. This innovative machine is specially designed with three levels of protection for both your basement and your peace of mind. In times of normal functioning, the system has a powerful cast-iron Zoeller 1/3 horsepower sum pump set at the lowest level. For times of heavy volume water, the TripleSafe boasts a second, more powerful Zoeller 1/2 horsepower pump set a bit higher in the liner that will take over. Ryan went on to say that he would also recommend our UltraSump battery backup system. He explained that the UltraSump will alert you of power failure with an alarm sound when it runs and silences when the pump cycles off. This system can pump out an excess of 11,500 gallons of water on a fully charged battery. The homeowner was thrilled with the new system recommendation and scheduled the job on the spot.
Several weeks later, our Foreman, Kevin M, and his team successfully placed the system. Now, our customer can have peace of mind heading into the warmer months!
