I was wondering what your opinion is on Basement Watchdog Brand pumps. For some time, they been making backup sump pump systems, but now they are making primary pumps as well as a combination primary/backup system.
The last two installs, I dropped in a Zoeller M53 as a primary pump... not quite sure I would trust Basement Watchdog as a primary quite yet or even as a combo. What do you guys think?
I have installed the PHCC Pro series primary pumps sold by Glentronics. I have had a couple fail with in a year. I am not real happy with their primary pumps. I will stick to Hydromatic and Zoeller for my primary pump needs. But as for batter back up, I really like their units, never had one fail on their own (had two due to customer neglect).
The battery backup ones that did fail where due to one home owner that like to tinker and he "readjusted the switch" where it turned on a bit to late. The other home owner got an alarm that their was a problem with his 6 year old battery so he just unplugged everything.
The only unit I sell now is the PHCC 2400, it comes with everything a home owner needs, and they are super reliable. Now as an alternative to the Glentronics back up system, I will never install an AuqaNot. I will install the SumpPro with a pair of Zoellers or Hydromatics on an alternator.
