PeakFlow Pumps - Invents New Technology Preventing Basement Flooding
PeakFow Pumps a Chicago area company has invented flood prevention
equipment that uses today’s internet technology to test and monitor
equipment, communicate alarm conditions via email and text, and
amazingly, allow Remote Access and Control of the system. But the
equipment itself is not just a monitoring or alarm system, it is a fully
redundant, high output, AC/DC pump system. After a 10 month pilot
program, the systems are now available to the general public.
Chicago, IL, February 14, 2012 -- PeakFow Pumps, a Chicago area company,
has invented never before available flood prevention equipment that stops
basement flooding like nothing else can. The pioneering, patent pending
sump pump systems use today’s internet technology to test and monitor
equipment, communicate alarm conditions via email and text, and
amazingly, allow Remote Access and Control of the system. But the
equipment itself is not just a monitoring or alarm system, it is a fully
redundant, high output, AC/DC pump system installed right alongside an
existing primary pump. After a 10 month pilot/beta program, the systems
are now being made available to the general public.
PeakFlow Pumps is the manufacturer of the new technology-infused flood
prevention equipment, called “iControl”. Company President Jeff Sloss
says, “Our new products give homeowners Peace Of Mind that their basement
will never flood. If you’re at work or on vacation and worried about a
thunderstorm, for example, you can view status, test, silence, and even
edit the equipment that is back home anytime, from anywhere. And the
email and text alarm features ensure that equipment concerns are
communicated immediately, giving the homeowner, or their contractor, time
to respond, instead of being discovered weeks or months later as the
cause of a flood.” This is crucial because one of the realities of pump
equipment is that homeowners very rarely check and test equipment for
proper operation. If equipment needs attention on March 1st, is it better
to know this when the storms roll in weeks or months later... or on March
1st?
The company says the groundbreaking equipment has commercial applications
also. “We have installations in school buildings, in park district
vaults, libraries, and business parks. All these customers are thrilled
and relieved to have a solution that provides backup protection and 24/7
eyes on very important equipment.” It’s like having a technician living
in your basement always watching and taking your calls. Insurance
companies looking to reduce flooding claims and increase profits are
beginning to see the advantage of the self-testing, monitored, and online
interface of PeakFlow Pumps’ iControl.
Proudly made in the USA!
PeakFlow Pumps systems are American Made (in Lake Zurich, Illinois) and
boast an industry leading 5 year warranty, but the price is not much more
than what people have been paying for years for far less capable systems.
Once the equipment is purchased and installed, owners or their
contractors can take advantage of all this technology for a flat $29 per
year (yes, per year... that’s NOT a misprint). And customers that prefer
to “outsource the stress” can pay PeakFlow Pumps more for professional
monitoring packages.
Special situations are also no problem for the iControl. With its fully
configurable settings, the iControl can handle unusual sump arrangements,
high capacity needs, and much more.
