Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Water Damaging Basement Eliminated in Jacksonville, IL
Water was leaking in a basement in Jacksonville, IL, and damaging the walls. To solve this issue, the WaterGuard System was installed. This perimeter drainage system will catch wall seepage 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. This system also includes an UltraSump battery backup system, which turns on if the power goes out and effectively pumps out the water. Lastly, 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. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain dry and clean for years to come!
