Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Waterproofing a Damaged Basement in Smithton, IL
Water was leaking in a basement in Smithton, IL causing damage and concern. To solve this issue, the WaterGuard System was first installed. This perimeter drainage system will catch wall seepage and drain it toward the TripleSafe Sump Pump System, draining water from WaterGuard and below the basement and discharging it from the house. 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 stay dry all the time!
Water Damage
Water has caused damage to this basement.
Perimeter Drain
This interior perimeter drainage system will carry all incoming water through the wall 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 adds a drain at the base of the house to protect the system from backing up in the case of a sump pump discharge point that is clogged by snow or ice.
