Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Waterproofing a Basement in Columbia, IL
Water was leaking in a basement in Columbia, IL, so the WaterGuard System was installed. These drainage pipes intercept water at the perimeter of the basement and drain it toward the TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which will drain water from WaterGuard and below the basement and discharge it out of the house. Next, the IceGuard Sump Pump Discharge 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 discharge lines 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 thanks to these systems!
Perimeter Drainage System
WaterGuard will Drain wall seepage over to the sump pump.
Sump Pump
The TripleSafe 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.
Discharge Lines
The patented design of the IceGuard automatically allows water to escape through its perforations when pipe terminations are blocked, usually by ice or snow.
Discharge Line Outlet
The LawnScape Outlet will release water far from the house, so it does not re-enter the basement.
