Tech says emergency pump not as good as the regular pump ?

[FIXITGUY1971]

I've been told the emergency pump is nowhere near the capacity of my main pump. This sounds like a problem ???

That could be a problem depending on your water table. There are many versions of back up sump pumps. Some run off batteries some use the water lines for power. Many will handle the same capacity of the main pump.
