Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Waterproofing a Basement in Swansea, IL
Water was entering a basement in Swansea, IL, causing damage. To solve this issue, 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. The patented design of this system automatically allows water to escape through its perforations when pipe terminations are blocked, usually by ice or snow. 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!

The TripleSafe can handle a heavy flow of water, thanks to a secondary pump that will help eliminate the water if the first pump can't keep up.

IceGuard will allow water to escape if these pipes freeze over.
