GENERAL INFORMATION
The Battery Backup Combo Kit is pre-plumbed up to the hose
and clamp assembly. The system includes the primary sump
pump, backup sump pump assembly, and vertical float switch.
The unit is equipped with two check valves - one for the primary
pump and one for the backup pump.
The battery backup pump is not a substitute for your primary
sump pump. It is designed to temporarily backup your primary
sump pump during a power outage or other problem which
prevents normal operation of the primary pump. Do not use this
system to pump flammable liquids or chemicals. Pump clear
sump water only with this pump. For residential use only.
Keep the battery charger dry and protected from damage.
This system is designed to work with either a sealed lead-acid
AGM battery or a flooded lead-acid battery. Use of a true Gel Cell
(often confused for AGM) or a standard automotive battery with
this charger is not recommended. An automotive battery may
require charging after only 1-2 hours of continuous use, and the
repeated charging cycles may cause early plate failure in the
battery.
SPECIFICATIONS

prematurely.
Note
: If a Carbon Monoxide (CO) sensor is installed, it must
be at least 15 feet away from battery charger in order to
avoid nuisance CO alarms. Please refer to your CO detector’s
installation guidelines for more information.
