Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Crawlspace Waterproofing with CleanSpace™
This crawlspace in Red Bud, IL. had a thin plastic vapor barrier to protect the home above from the hazards of a dirt crawlspace. But this thin plastic was not enough to properly protect the home. That's why homeowner Cody Y. turned to the experts at Woods Basement Systems to install CleanSpace™ throughout the crawlspace.
CleanSpace™ is a tough, waterproof liner designed especially for crawlspaces. CleanSpace™ is made of a tear-proof material that will allow it to be permanently fastened in place while its anti-microbial layer will prevent mold growth across its surface. Once in place, CleanSpace™ will block water and water vapor from entering the home where they might otherwise cause damage. Instead, this water is directed to the sump pump so it can be removed from the home. In this home, a SmartSump™ was installed to deal with the water buildup.
IceGuard System
IceGuard was installed outside of the home to ensure that water can escape.
Extending the Discharge Line
The discharge line was extended away from the foundation of the home.
CleanSpace Liner
CleanSpace was installed on the walls of the basement, creating a moisture barrier in the basement of the home.
TripleSafe System
This sump pump features an air-tight liner that will prevent water from escaping the sump pit by evaporating. It also features a special floor drain to catch leaks inside the crawlspace and an alarm to alert homeowners to dangerously high water levels.
