Solution to your battery powered back up sump pump

Have you ever had your sump pump fail in the middle of a down pour? Do you currently rely on a battery powered sump pump?  We wanted you to know about a product that we are providing as a solution to the standard battery back up sump pump.  The water commander runs solely off of water pressure, it does not require a battery, or any electricity, so you never have to worry about changing batteries or loosing power.  The Water Commander will run for an unlimited amount of time, with no required maintenance.

The standard battery powered back up will only run for 7 to 8 hours; as the battery ages that will reduce to one or two hours.  The Water Commander is the most reliable backup sump pump you can buy.  It can pump up to 2700 Gallons Per Hour (depending on model and city water pressure) and will activate immediately, even if you are not home during a rain storm or power outage.  It is not only considered a back up to your sump pump, but will run in tandem with your current sump pump.  It can easily match or out pump your current configuration.


Be prepared in the event that your current sump pump fails during a heavy rain storm or power outage! Avoid costly repairs caused by water damage to your basement!

For more information on the Water Commander high output water-powered backup sump pump please visit them at their website at www.tanecorp.com.  Or call us to schedule an appointment with one of our knowledgeable technicians!

Saving and Conserving water

Have you been experiencing an abnormally high water bill, but nothing in your daily routine as to water usage has changed? Below we have listed a few possible scenario's that could silently cause your increased water bill.

Did you know that a leaking or running toilet can waste up to 200 Gallons of water a day? or that older toilets use 3+ gallons of water every time they are flushed? Newer toilets have been regulated to only use 1.6 gallons per flush. Also, a dripping faucet and increase water pressure from the source could cause an increase in your daily usage.

If you would like to have a plumbing inspection completed to review your system's efficiency as well as perform some preventative maintenance, please give us a call so we can set up an appointment with one of our knowledgeable technicians!

Maintaining your Sump Pump!

Sump tanks and sump pumps must be maintained. Typical recommendations suggest examining equipment every year. Pumps running frequently due to higher water table, water drainage, or weather conditions should be examined more frequently. Sump pumps, being highly mechanical, will fail eventually, which could lead to a flooded basement requiring costly repairs.
When examining a sump pump and cleaning it, dirt, gravel, sand, and other debris should be removed to increase efficiency and extend the life of the pump. These obstructions can also decrease the pump's ability to drain the sump, and can allow the sump to overflow. The check valve can also jam from the debris.

For more information on Sump Pumps, please visit Wikipedia.

Drano & Liquid Plumber - Cause pipe damage!

Were you aware that common store bought chemicals that state they clear blockage's in your pipes can weaken and damage the pipes in your house? These commonly used chemicals are also a health concern as they can cause 3rd degree chemical burns, as well as stain your clothes. We offer a viable solution with a product called "Bio-Clean".

Bio-Clean is a environmentally safe blend of bacteria and enzymes, the most powerful on the market today. Their website states "Bio-Clean is non-poisonous. It creates no heat, no fumes, no boiling. It does not attack live tissue nor inorganic materials, only organic wastes like grease, hair, food particles, paper, cotton & sewage. This makes BIO-CLEAN safe for people, plumbing and the environment. BIO-CLEAN changes the waste particles into water, carbon dioxide and mineral ash which run harmlessly out of your waste system. These elements are then available for plant life."
