The Alpha
is a high-performance battery back-up sump pump system designed to prevent basement flooding in the most extreme conditions. The Alpha system has the pumping power to tackle the heaviest rains and the efficiency to outlast the longest storms. For over a decade, the Alpha has been a leader in both pumping performance and smart features that will keep your basement dry and your home safe from flooding. There is only one Alpha!
SMART CONTROL
The Alpha’s controller is constantly monitoring the water level, power status, and battery voltage 24/7. It also operates the pump and runs a complete diagnostic test of the entire system once a week to ensure your Alpha is ready and your basement is protected.

Most reliable switch
SumpTek’s solid-state sensors are responsible for turning the pump on and off in an emergency. They have no moving parts or pieces to get hung up or fail, unlike a traditional mechanical float switch found on other systems. These sensor switches last 10x longer and are proven for reliable and redundant operation year after year.
Twice the protection
Both sensors work independently; the top sensor will continue to operate the pump even if the bottom sensor can’t. With the PowerGuard, you get two of the most reliable sensor switches in
one system.
Maximum pumping power
Backup systems should always pump more than your primary sump pump. They typically operate when the pump can’t keep up, is dead, or there is a power failure, almost always during severe rainstorms. The PowerGuard’s high-output DC pump has more pumping power than a 1/3HP sump pump and is designed for continuous operation in extreme weather.
LONGER RUNTIME
The Alpha’s DC pump draws less power from the battery to achieve the longest run time possible, over 300% longer than inverter-based systems..
By design, the pump uses the water being pumped out of the basin to cool its motor for a long service life and runtime.
