Robert is doing some renovations to his Oakville, On home and wanted amore reliable and sealed Sump pump. Omni Basement Systems recommended the SuperSump with the UltraSump4 for battery back-up. The SuperSump features a cast iron submersible pump made by Zoeller in Kentucky, USA as the main pump. The SuperSump also includes a two-piece sealed lid and an airtight floor drain. The UltraSump4 is a D.C. operated pump that has a 120amp hour battery and a smart charger. If the homeowner has an alarm system, the Utrasump4 comes with a data port that can alert the alarm system when it is in operation.

Original Sump

Like most of the older section of Oakville. This home has a sump that is in a concrete liner. The problem with this is the concrete does not aloow water from under the floor slab to get into the sump. Oakville is known for having underground stream throughout the city.
