AUSTIN, Texas, Oct. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Shipshape, a company on a mission to make homes smart enough to take care of themselves, today announced a partnership with Wayne Pumps that allows customers to access professional monitoring services when they integrate their smart sump pumps into the Shipshape app. This partnership offers a comprehensive solution to increase home management, safety, and convenience for Wayne Pumps customers.
Wayne Pumps, a Marmon Holdings company and a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway, is known for its water management solutions. Wayne Pumps' popular Basement Guardian HALO® smart sump pump can now be paired with Shipshape's advanced platform to provide homeowners with real-time performance monitoring, proactive maintenance alerts, and access to Shipshape's Home Assistant Monitoring services.
