The Basement Watchdog
Searching for strong backup protection that also can be hooked up to our WiFi Module for remote notification? Consider The Basement Watchdog Special CONNECT®—our most popular backup pump model.
The controller for the Basement Watchdog Special CONNECT (Model BWSP) provides crucial, 24-hour-a-day monitoring of pump, power and battery conditions, ensuring your sump pump is ready to protect. The easy-to-understand controller detects irregularities, sounds an alarm, and visually pinpoints problems and solutions on the front panel.
With the Basement Watchdog Special CONNECT (Model BWSP) battery backup sump pump on guard, you’ll have confidence knowing your basement is protected. The control box automatically monitors the system, and should the power go out or the main sump pump fail, the battery backup sump pump will take over to keep your basement dry.
The Basement Watchdog Special CONNECT (Model BWSP) battery backup sump pump includes a microreed Dual Float Switch. We introduced this technology, proven reliable in other uses for over 50 years, to the pump industry and improved it by including two floats. Simply stated: if one float is good, two is better.
The Basement Watchdog Special CONNECT (Model BWSP) battery backup sump pump, our most popular backup, moves an impressive 2,600 GPH at 0-foot height and 1,850 GPH at 10-foot height.
The Basement Watchdog Special CONNECT (Model BWSP) battery backup sump pump is equipped with an automatic, multi-stage, 1.6amp charger that keeps the battery fully charged and ready to go, plus it’s compatible with our maintenance-free battery and wet-cell batteries.
Knowing the status of your sump pump is critical whether you are at home or away. The Basement Watchdog Special CONNECT (Model BWSP) battery backup sump pump can link to The Basement Watchdog WiFi Module (Model BW-WiFi2, purchased separately) or a home-security system, allowing for real-time alerts via text, email, or push notifications.

A float switch is the component of your sump system that turns on the pump. All the Basement Watchdog battery backup sump pump systems and the backup pumps that are part of our combination systems use the super reliable Dual Float Switch to activate the pump.
The pump discharge is the plumbing, typically 1½-inch PVC pipe, that carries the water out of the house or building, away from the pump and sump pit.
The pump housing is the outer casing of the pump that encloses the pump motor.
An impeller is a rotating disk that has blades, or vanes, which move the water using centrifugal force up and out through the discharge pipe.
A strainer is a filtration device, built into the base of Basement Watchdog pumps, which prevents the intake of objects that can harm the internal components of a pump.
Pump Flow @ 10 Feet (GPH) is a measure of the amount of water (gallons per hour) that a pump can move through a 10-foot vertical discharge pipe before the water exits the home or building.
Max head is the maximum vertical height a pump can push water straight up against gravity. It is the point at which gravity takes over the outflow in the discharge.
Purchase with a Basement Watchdog AGM battery and receive an extra year of warranty. Plus, get an additional year of warranty when the pump is registered online*, for a total of 4 years. (*Registration must occur within 60 days of purchase.)
