Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Installing a Sump Pump in Charleston, IL
Homeowners in Charleston, IL wanted to have a sump pump installed in their basement, so a TripleSafe Sump Pump was installed. This system assures protection from everyday problems with an ordinary 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. It also features a removable airtight lid that reduces noise, prevents objects from falling in, and keeps moisture, insects, and odor from coming out of the sump. Additionally, 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. This basement will now stay dry all the time thanks to these systems!
