“We’re in the business of helping families make simple, sensible, and affordable arrangements.” Spring Rains are Coming…Be Prepared With all the snow melting, the recent rains and moving into spring with routine spring showers, it’s important to make sure your sump pump is operating properly. More importantly I recommend that you install a battery back up system to your sump pump. The unfortunate reality is, no AC powered sump pump will work when the power is out. A battery powered backup sump pump system will help protect your basement in the event of a power failure.
What Good Does Pre-Planning Do For Your Family?
Your Family . . .
• Knows exactly what you want • Will not have to make difficult decisions on the worst day of their lives • Will not overspend • Will have “Peace of Mind”knowing your wishes were honored
For more information call John at
Choose your system carefully. We recommend a monitoring system that sounds an alarm when maintenance is needed, or when a problem arises. After all, a backup sump pump system with a dead battery, loose cables, or a clogged pump is like having no backup at all.
