TrenchDrain™ Grated Drain
By the door, Woods installed a TrenchDrain™ draining pipe, which connects to the WaterGuard system. If water comes underneath the door, it will immediately go into the TrenchDrain™ pipe, so the homeowners can rest easy knowing the water will not spread to other areas of the basement.
WaterGuard® Draining System
The WaterGuard® system goes underneath the floor (hence the wet concrete around the perimeter), and directs water to the sump pump to be pumped out of the home.
CleanSpace® Vapor Barrier
A CleanSpace® vapor barrier was mechanically fastened to the walls, and will helpdirect water coming through the wall to the WaterGuard® system below to be pumped out by the sump pump.
TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System
The TripleSafe™ sump pump system was installed to take the place of the old sump pump. It has two pumps, in which the second operates if the first one fails, and a battery back-up system that operates during power outages.
