First, diagnose
With three rivers feeding groundwater beneath Fort Wayne, a battery backup isn't optional extra credit -- it's what keeps a pump running through the storm that also knocks out power.
The full scope
- Sizing built for sustained, multi-river groundwater
- Battery backup for outages during storms
- Freeze protection on the discharge line
- Failure alarm rather than a silent pump
- Quality check valve and pit liner
Worth noting locally
Backup power matters more in Fort Wayne than in drier areas, since storms serious enough to raise three rivers also tend to knock out power.
