"I see now that I ordered this pump exactly one year ago tomorrow, on 4/26/07, and kept putting off the installation until 3/9/08. Had the battery on trickle charger all winter to keep it alive. Installation was challenging, but only because of having to work in the sump. I used the Wayne pump in a temporary mount ( duct taped to a two-by-four ) to keep the sump drained while I reworked the plumbing. Managed to end up with a fairly tidy piece of work. Tested OK, and then began to wonder if it would ever see any action.
Yesterday it saw plenty of action. Almost three inches of rain and the float switch on the main pump failed. My wife asked me when I got home from work, "What's that beeping noise I keep hearing?" Well, it was the Wayne pump saving our finished basement and all the stuff in it from becoming a flooded junk pond.
I really like my Wayne Backup Sump Pump. Really."

"This was so easy to install. My reason for purchasing this was to avoid the high cost of a standby generator. now I can rely on this pump to protect my basement if i'm not home. my cost for a generator to run what is needed is about $4,000 less. p.s. buy a good battery!!"

"I bought this for my mothers basement for when the power goes off. We have not had the option to use it yet but anticipate a good product."
