Some homeowners suffer from flooding basements. Permanent fixes can be costly and require renovating the home/property. If this option does not work, a homeowner still has options to prevent terrible floods. With the help of a plumber in NYC, it is possible to install two devices that can save a home from water.

The two products include sump pumps and sewer backwater check valves. Once both devices are installed, they are ready to work. Once the devices sense water, they turn on and begin to work.

A sump pump works by removing water from basements. Once the motor to the machine is turned on, water is pumped through a hose to a desired location outside the cellar. The sump pump does not prevent water from coming in, but it does protect homeowners from devastating floods.

A sewer backwater check valve is an important device to install in any home that could potentially flood. This device prevents sewage water from coming back up the sewer main as a result of too much pressure on drainage infrastructure. When a drainage system backs up, the water will begin to flow backward. A check valve prevents water from flowing back into the home.
