Sentry 1622PS Review
By Charlie C
Illinois
Purchased 04/05/2023 |
Review Posted 05/05/2023
Only had it for a month so far, but it seems to be working well. Was easy to order and had a quick delivery. Using it to back up a sump pump. Installed it with a deep cycle 12 volt battery myself, simple setup, good instructions, easy to test. This device is not cheap, but if it works as advertised it'll be worth it (keeping a crawl space with a home furnace in it dry).

Review Posted 03/29/2023
I don't have anything to say yet because we have not yet had a power outage during a prolonged heavy rainstorm when we needed our sump pump to operate while being powered by our backup battery. When that occurs we will be able to give a review. Also, I wish that there was an easy to install device that notifies us when our sump pump is running so that we will know that it is operational without having to climb into the crawlspace under our house

Great Product

Review Posted 03/24/2023
This is easy to setup. I also got the recommended battery with it as well. Have only lost power once since installed and it worked perfectly. Would recommend to anyone who worries about power outage and basement flooding. I don't worry when I go to bed during a storm anymore. It makes beening away from home easier.

Wonderful Product But Some Compatibility Issues
By Tom P
Illinois
Review Posted 10/13/2022
Great device. Simple to setup and maintain. My review is focused mainly for those of you who plan to use with Zoeller make pumps. Be aware that pumps with running amps at 10.5 or over such as the PN 95-0001 1/2 HP model will trigger the Low Voltage alarm on the inverter UNLESS you use 2 batteries. I’ve tests this now on 3 units all using new and functioning Interstate SRM-31 batteries. It’s clear it’s a compatibility issue with Zoeller pumps over 10amps. Recommend SEC updates their pump compatibility list.

Priceless Peace of Mind
By Jon M
Wisconsin
Review Posted 09/05/2022
My previous setup had a Primary pump with integrated inline float switch and an in sump DC powered backup pump with a pig tail switch. It was a lot for that sump pit and anytime something didn't work right, I had to tear it all out and reinstall which was not fun.
This product changed everything for me because I was able to use a single high quality pump and high quality solid state switch reducing the gear and the complexity of the system installed within the pit. When the power goes out, this device runs my primary pump on battery power.
It's been 1.5 years with this setup and it works as advertised. I simply test the unit and backup battery (sold separately) at the start of each wet season and then sleep well at night and don't worry while I'm away.
It's not cheap but it gives me the peace of mind I was needing. I definitely recommend this product.

Peace Of Mind
By Jan R
Nebraska
Review Posted 08/22/2022
It's good to have this sump pump battery backup for the peace of mind! I had my electrician install, along with a whole house surge protector. This backup unit is fairly heavy for this older lady to install, as, of course, the battery is VERY heavy, so I was very happy to pay the electrician, with all the expertise & equipment to install it! I have never had a sump pump problem, but the way the weather is going these days, I wanted the insurance. It tested fine ... the true test would be an actual power failure in a storm, which we have not had so far.

Project Never Flood
By Hill R
Illinois
Review Posted 05/14/2022
So I'm a little OCD and do most things over in beyond to insure I don't have to do it again. My primary sump pump is a Wayne Halo 3/4HP (8.3amps running). The Halo sump pump is wifi controlled and monitored using a solid state air switch instead of the typical mechanical float switch that commonly fails. This pump is now backed up by the 1800 watt Pump Sentry w/ 200AH Hybrid Gel Battery providing 24hrs continuous running. Don't forget to test to make sure it works and Turn the ON switch located on the bottom of the Pump Sentry like I did for at least a full day.

Added this battery backup to a Zoeller M95 pump. This product works just as advertised. Cut the power to test it, and the Interstate marine battery powers the pump perfectly. Very happy with this set up.

Amazing Product

Review Posted 03/22/2022
Needed a back up battery for my Sewage sump pump in the event my generator doesn’t kick in during a rain storm. Love that it just works when the power goes out. A bit pricey for all the accessories ( sentry, battery, battery box and a cart to elevate the battery ) but worth every penny of the piece of mind.

Review Posted 02/14/2022
I needed this because my pump requires more strength. It was costly, but with a battery in parallel and this unit, my pump is good for 24 hours until I get my generator out of the shed. It's very well built and mounts easy to the wall. My real test is when the power goes out.
