WaterGuard Installation
WaterGuard is installed below the ground. In this case, the carpet is pulled back to expose the floor. The area near the cove joint is jackhammered and WaterGuard is laid down to sit out of dirt and silt to prevent the system from clogging.
Installation Continued
WaterGuard is laid at the floor and wall joint, and will ultimately lead directly to the sump pump so water seepage can be pumped out of the basement.
Well Duct
If there is an Egress Window, a WellDuct can keep your window safe from leaks. A WellDuct collects any water seepage from the window well and redirects it to go into the WaterGuard.
Behind the Stairs
Depending on the situation, WaterGuard can be installed in tricky spots, such as under the stairs, as seen in this photo.
Open Space
WaterGuard is installed below-ground, keeping it out of sight and out of the way. This opens up the possibility to use the area for storage or recreational living space.
Covered
WaterGuard is covered up with concrete once it is placed correctly. The only portion that sticks out above ground is the built-in wall flanges that collect wall leaks, keeping the floors safe and dry.
IceGuard: A Midwest Staple
IceGuard is an automatic drainage system that allows water to escape out of the sump system in case of lines freeze during the cold winter months. It can reach sub-zero temps in the Midwest during wintertime, and this system can bring you peace of mind that your basement will stay dry every month.
