Quoted from indybru:

I felt this way as well. However early this year I had sumps go out and battery backup was so old it didn't help. I caught it early Sunday morning so we did the dry vac and hauled filled buckets up the stairs and dumped water outside. Didn't hit pins. My wife and I had help son in law ,grandson and later my son.
Plumber came out that morning and replaced sump. Then next week had new battery backup installed.
So you think I'm good right? Well I added a second sump pump in the pit, so now have 2 regular sump pumps that discharge in our lake plus battery. Also I'm religious on putting on extensions on the down spouts and just cleaned the gutters this morning.
Then 10 days ago my Generac natural gas generator ordered in February was installed for the whole house. I think I'm covered .
Whew.
