FloodGuard. Flood Guard Basement Protection System

is "basement protection at its finest," utilizing a two-pump system that assures you will always have a backup pump if one fails or the flow is more than one pump can handle. Unlike other systems, Flood Guard alternates both pumps to increase lifespan and keep one from sitting dormant. Flood Guard also has the ability to bring on both pumps at the same time if there is a large influx of water into the pit. With Flood Guard, if a pump fails or both pumps are required to keep up with the water flow, it will alert you with a loud audible alarm.
With the original system still working from over 30 years ago, it is reliable. Flood Guard was designed by and is only available from Kellermeier Plumbing & Heating. Keep your home and belongings safe with "basement protection at its finest," and have a Flood Guard Basement

Why Use Flood Guard?

Over the years, we have found that most basements flood due to sump pump failures, not power outages. With this in mind, we have developed the Flood Guard System.

Flood Guard utilizes two pumps and a control system to provide a backup if a pump should fail. Flood Guard has a lower level control that brings on a pump under normal conditions; on the next call it will alternate and bring on the other pump. Alternating the pumps keeps both of them exercised and increases their life.

Flood Guard then has a high-level control that if activated, will bring on the other pump. This is used if one pump fails or if the water demand is too great for a single pump to handle. When the upper-level control is activated, it will send out an audible alarm to notify the homeowner that the upper level has been reached and there may be an issue. All of this adds up to "basement protection at its finest."
