Jesup, IA, Sump System Upgrade

In Jesup, Iowa, a homeowner preparing to sell their property hit an unexpected snag during real estate negotiations: an improper basement water discharge setup. To satisfy buyer requests and ensure a smooth transaction, System Design Specialist Shawn Conaway evaluated the basement's water management needs and designed a reliable, high-capacity discharge rerouting strategy.

Foreman Jacob Oetzman and crew members Antonio, Devin B., and Nathan B. mobilized to execute the installation. The team installed a comprehensive sump pump package featuring the high-performance SuperSump® System combined with the battery-powered UltraSump® Backup System through MidAmerica Basement Systems.

Jacob and the crew set up the primary SuperSump pump to handle high-volume water evacuation, discharging it through a newly rerouted, code-compliant exterior line. To guarantee continuous protection during heavy storms or municipal power outages, the team integrated the UltraSump battery backup system. The completed installation provided an efficient, reliable water management system that satisfied the prospective buyer and gave both parties complete peace of mind during the home sale.
