Prevent Basement Flooding

With the rain we are getting these days it’s important to think about the risk to your home or business when the drains overflow. The basement is one of the first places to get flooded during a deluge and sometimes that’s where our most prized possessions are stored. When your basement floods, it can cause significant, devastating damage. The good news is; you can take steps to prevent it. Generac and No More Blackouts has worked with many homeowners and we know how to protect your basement.

TAKE A STEP TOWARDS FLOODING PROTECTION WITH A HOME STANDBY GENERATOR

One important part of preventing basement flooding is installing a home standby generator. It will protect and power your essential electrical components in a flood situation. Explore our generator products to find the unit that will work for you.

EVEN UNIT BLOCKS GET FLOODED!

There are many unit blocks that also flood, the below valuable facilities need to be protected:

– Basement with lift wells

– Lock up garages

– Storage units

– Street entry/exit roller doors, how will you get in or out

– Alarm systems for pumps

– Basement ventilation units

– Hot water systems etc

We have a 20Kva or 27Kva Gas powered generator that would be the solution to these problems, no one needs to be there to turn it on as it automatically starts when needed and stops once the blackout is repaired. Most unit blocks have natural gas therefore, the Strata wouldn’t need to pay or rely on anyone to check for fuel (diesel/petrol), levels as the generator is gas fueled, the gas is always there and connected.

Most Strata bodies have a great advantage in sharing the cost (being for multiple units), that is a minimal cost to ensure your peace of mind.

FOR A CHEAPER ALTERNATIVE – WE OFFER A CUSTOM ISOLATED BASEMENT PUMP CIRCUIT

Now you can safeguard only your basement pump circuit with a portable generator that automatically activates during a blackout and shuts off when mains power returns. This smart, targeted solution ensures your sump pump keeps running without interruption, preventing water buildup that can lead to costly and dangerous flooding in your basement or garage.

Whether it’s heavy rain, storms, or unexpected outages, your pump stays operational — protecting your home’s foundation, stored items, vehicles, tools, and valuables from water damage that could run into thousands of dollars in repairs. Designed for easy integration with an automatic transfer switch (ATS), it detects power loss in seconds and seamlessly powers the pump circuit, giving you reliable protection without the need for manual startup or monitoring.

At a fraction of the cost of a full-home standby system, this setup delivers essential, reliable protection with fully automatic operation — no manual starting or monitoring required. It’s the perfect lower-cost option for  homeowners who want peace of mind during storm season without over-investing.

It’s simple to install and easy to maintain and it provides focused backup exactly where you need it most.
