As you can see in the before photo, old sump pumps were just holes in the ground with a pump inside attempting to pump out water from the home. Over time, it would fail due to lack of maintenance or clogging from lack of protection to the pump. In Elmwood Park, NJ we installed our SuperSump Pump System which will effectively pump water out of the basement, keeping it dry and healthy. Lets compare; the SuperSump has a pump that sits in a protective liner inside the floor. The airtight lid protects the system inside all while stopping water from evaporating back into the basement air. It stops musty smells from forming and mold growth as well. The alarm system on the lid, can sense issues at any time to alert the homeowner there is a problem so they can be proactive before a serious problem ever occurs.
