Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Waterproofing a Damp Basement in Champaign, IL
Water was coming down basement walls in Champaign, IL, causing damage and concern for the homeowners. The sump pump was also failing to remove water and was seeping moisture into the air. To solve these issues, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was first installed. This will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls, and drain any leaks to the WaterGuard System. 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. 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 efficient, high-capacity, 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 area. Thanks to these systems, this basement will stay dry all the time!
