Louis G asked:
I have a dehumidifier in my basement and during the summer I have to empty the bucket atleast once a day sometimes more. Would there be any problems running a drain from the dehumidifer to my sump pump baisin? I imagine that the sump would operate much more frequently doing this. Is it common practice?
The sump does have a battery backup so there is no worries about it overflowing during a power outage.
I was mostly just nervous about the pump running more often than perhaps it was designed for.

ncjacinto asked:
I live in a town home and have a sump pump. As far as I can tell, our foundations are poured concrete (although I can hear neighbor’s dog yap away when I’m in the basement-not sure what that means).We have a semi-finished basement (drywall). Is it worth it to buy a battery back-up for our sump-pump if our neighbors have none?

Lady25 asked: What’s the best sump pump backup that is availble and most reliable? I have heard negative reviews on battery backups and them failing. My partially finished basement recenly flooded due to a power outage which is why I am trying to pick one out.
Thanks!
