At Allied Water Services, we install residential flood control systems that protect homes from sewer backups and water intrusion during heavy rain events. This project involved integrating a reliable, code-compliant flood control system directly into the home’s existing sanitary sewer line — providing long-term defense against flooding and costly property damage. Our experienced crew handled every phase of the installation, from excavation to electrical work, ensuring the system performs safely, efficiently, and meets all local codes. ⚙️ Project Scope - Installation of a 36-inch precast concrete basin for underground containment and easy maintenance access - Construction of an internal sump pit within the basin to house pumping components - Installation of a ½ horsepower sewage ejector pump to handle intermittent sanitary discharge during flood conditions - Installation of check valves on the ejector discharge line to prevent reverse flow - Dual check valve assembly installed on the home’s sanitary main to isolate it from municipal backflow during heavy storms - Routing of electrical conduit and wiring from the main panel to the outdoor system in full NEC compliance Homeowner Benefits - Prevents sewer backups and basement flooding - Automatically activates during heavy rainfall - Keeps plumbing systems safe from municipal surcharges - Protects property value and interior finishes - Provides peace of mind through every storm
