I personally agree strongly with Susan's and Ironraven's comments!!

How about acquiring a hand-operated pump as a sump pump standby and make arrangements to catch rain water off of the roof when it rains. Treating rainwater is much easier than dealing with sump water.

My current plans call for catching the rain water from the roof.
