Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Waterproofing a Damp and Moldy Basement in Hillsboro, IL
Moisture was seeping into a basement in Hillsboro, IL, creating a damp environment and allowing mold to grow. to solve this issue, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was first installed. This will completely isolate the basement from the earth and reduce the humidity level. Any mold growth will also be eliminated, making the whole house healthier. The white color will also brighten the basement and make it easier to see inside it. Next, the SmartSump System was installed. This can collect water both from plumbing leaks in the home as well as sudden groundwater problems beneath CleanSpace. This system also includes an UltraSump battery backup system, which turns on if the power goes out and effectively pumps out the water. Lastly, a SaniDry Sedona was installed. This high-capacity, high-efficiency 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 SmartSump, so there is no need to empty any bucket with this system. Thanks to these systems, this basement will stay dry all the time!
