This water may come from a number of sources including high groundwater levels and from perimeter drains in a basement waterproofing system. A sump pump provides protection against flooding and also helps to remedy dampness in a basement conversion. Powered via the main electrical system of the house, a sump pump can also utilise its own battery, providing continued protection even in the event of a power failure.

Waterproofing a basement is an essential part of any conversion or construction project and adequate basement tanking systems must be used. When installed as one of a combination of basement damp proofing products including cavity drain membranes, a sump pump will provide total protection and will function at its optimum level for many years.
