Zoeller 507 Battery Backup Basement Sump Pump

Everyone invests their time, money, effort and other resources in converting a house in to a beautiful home. No one wants anything to damage their home. After all a home is a lifetime investment for people. Unfortunately, we still can't control the weather, and if you have a basement, you know well the damage that a storm can cause... having a sump pump is a practical necessity.

There are many reasons for having a backup water sump pump as well - having a power outage during a storm is only the most obvious, but you could also have your primary sump pump fail due to damage, a mechanical malfunction (such as an aging switch), obstructions in the pit, or even simply when the primary pump can't keep up due to too much water.

Now, there is one thing to consider - the battery is not included. This means that the total cost must include the purchase of a good 12v battery to use with this water sump pump. Zoeller makes an excellent battery for use with this unit, and will extend their normal 12 month warranty to 36 months if you purchase and use their 'Aquanot' battery (as well as return the warranty card to Zoeller - of course!)

Here's a review from one owner of the Zoeller 507 Basement Sump Pump:

A house we are remodeling had a leaky basement. Heavy rains lasting a few days resulted in an inch or more of water in the basement. A real mess. We got bids from 6 basement waterproofing companies. Five of the six said they used Zoeller equipment because they had the most reliable pumps, and past customers whose pumps failed were bad for business.

Our contractor installed a sump basin with TWO pumps: a Zoeller model 507 as backup to a 110 volt Zoeller M-53. At a 5 feet head (rise from pump to water discharge), the M-53 is rated at 43 gallons per minute, and the 507 is 23 GPM. The 507 provides extra protection if the M-53 should fail due to a storm, blackout, damage, mechanical malfunction, obstruction in the pit, or when the M-53 fails to keep up with excessive water due to rain or overloading. It uses a group 27 or group 31, 12 volt, marine battery.

The only disadvantage of a battery backup pump other than price, is that the battery needs replacement every 4 to 5 years.

Our large 12 volt marine battery sits on a strong shelf two feet off the floor, and the battery charger is attached to the wall. As far as I know, our model 507 pump has never kicked-in due to an emergency, but it certainly alleviates worries about basement flooding.

Here's an owner who's backup system saved him:

It works!

My home has two Zoeller pumps in the pit: a Zoeller M53 and the 507 Basement Sentry. Coming home from out-of-town one weekend (during which we received about 5 inches of rain), I arrived with the battery alarm in the basement going off. Upon checking the state of the pumps, it turns out the M53 was obstructed, but the basement was completely dry. The alarm went off because the battery was draining...this meant that the 507 did its duty when the M53 malfunctioned. Since this incident, the M53 has been functioning fine. I glad I invested in the 507!
