Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Leaking Basement Window Repaired in Edwardsville, IL
Water was coming through a basement window in Edwardsville, IL, and pooling onto the floor. To solve this issue, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System and the WellDuct Systems were first installed. These systems will both control any water that leaks down the basement walls from the window and will be directed to the WaterGuard System. 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. 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. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain dry and clean for years to come!
Leaking Window
Water has been leaking down this basement wall and onto the floor.
Wall and Drain Systems
CleanSpace will keep water vapor out of the basement, and WellDuct will drain water if it tries to enter through the window.
Perimeter Drain
WaterGuard will carry water that enters it to the sump pump.
Sump Pump
The TripleSafe can handle a heavy flow of water, thanks to a secondary pump included inside that will help eliminate the water if the first pump is unable to keep up with the amount of water that is entering it
Discharge Lines
IceGuard will allow water to escape if the pipes freeze over or become blocked for any reason.
