"I waited a year to rate the work provided by Piccirillo enterprises. Tony was very professional in conversation. We hired him based on reviews. He had instead of the crew to work on our house one person and occasionally he came, not often. The work lasted two months longer than projected. The finished product overall looks nice. However after a year I've now had the plumbing fixed in the kitchen and both bathrooms. The problems were basic plumbing not done properly and leaking water caused more issues. I would not recommend hiring this person as you get presented with a plan that sounds great, then in retrospect get to pay thousands to finish the job so it not only looks nice but it actually functions properly. His worker Adam did the majority of the job and as I said it looks nice, but all the major things I had fixed were installed with Tony present. I did reach out to Tony about the issues and he offered to come look at the problems, but after spending alot of money to fix other issues i decided it was in my best interest that I hired another business to fix the problem."

Runtime varies based on battery size and cycling frequency. Most battery backups run for six to 24 hours, depending on battery capacity and pump usage. The system activates only when water reaches trigger levels, potentially extending actual operation time beyond rated hours. For locations with frequent extended outages, consider keeping a spare battery or supplemental power source available.
Yes, most existing sump pump systems can be enhanced with battery backup capability. You'll need compatible components that work with your current setup. Installation involves connecting the backup unit to your discharge pipe and setting up the battery system. Professional installation (costing $45 to $200 per hour) helps ensure proper system integration and safe handling of electrical components.
A battery backup system provides valuable protection for homes in areas prone to power outages during storms. With an average cost of $900, these systems help prevent potentially significant water damage and related expenses. Even preventing a single flooding incident can justify the investment, especially considering standard homeowner insurance policies don’t often cover flood damage.
Regular maintenance includes testing system operation by disconnecting the primary pump and verifying that the backup activates properly. Inspect battery terminals for corrosion and clean as needed. Check battery charge levels according to manufacturer recommendations. Standard batteries require replacement every three to five years, while deep-cycle batteries with proper maintenance can last up to 10 years. An annual professional inspection (approximately $250) helps ensure reliable operation.
