Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Damp and Moldy Basement Waterproofed in Pana, IL
Water was entering a basement in Pana, IL, creating a damp and musty environment, and allowing mold to grow. To solve these issues, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was installed. This will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls and drain any leaks down to the WaterGuard System. 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. Lastly, a SaniDry Sedona was installed. This efficient, high-capacity, dehumidification system also includes an air filtration system, all in a single unit. This system wrings the air dry, and its powerful blower moves the dry air in and around the basement. It also automatically drains the water it catches into the sump system, so there is no need to empty any bucket with this system. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain dry and clean for years to come!
