Discharge Line is Root Issue
After investigating the home, Team Woods noticed staining and water damage below the discharge line. The discharge line was installed with the line stopping right by the house, allowing discarded water to redirect and leak back into the crawl space.
Crawl Space Entrance
This Vienna, Illinois crawl space had a musty smell that was noticeable when walking by due to the flooding inside.
Flooding
Once inside the crawl space, the Woods' specialist noticed flooding. The water stains shown on the wall indicate that this crawl space has had a history of water leaks and flooding.
What can be done?
On the other end of the crawl space, water was found standing on top of the tarp. To solve this issue, Team Woods installed a long discharge extension called a LawnScape outlet. A LawnScape outlet would prevent water from reentering into the home after being discarded.
