Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Water Soaking Carpet Eliminated with TripleSafe in Belleville, IL Basement
Water was getting into a Belleville, IL basement, soaking the carpet and causing damage. To solve this issue, a TripleSafe Sump System was installed. This sump system assures protection from all three problems that can occur with an ordinary pump. It can handle a heavy flow of water, thanks to a second pump that will help eliminate the water if the first pump can't keep up. This system also includes an UltraSump battery backup system which turns on if the power goes out and effectively pumps out the water. It also features a removable airtight lid which reduces noise, prevents objects from falling in, and keeps moisture, insects, and odor from coming out of the sump. Next, the IceGuard System was installed. These discharge lines will allow water to escape if the pipes freeze over or become blocked for any reason. Lastly, a LawnScape Outlet was installed. This connects the downspout to a special extension sending water away from the foundation while camouflaging the end of the pipe. This basement will remain dry and clean for years to come!
