Homeowners in Godfrey, IL had cracks forming on the walls of their basement indicating signs of wall failure. To solve this issue, GeoLock Wall Anchors were installed. These are galvanized steel earth anchors embedded into the soil out and away from the foundation wall. Once installed, these will hold the walls in their current position and can be tightened to allow for improvement and straightening of the wall over time. These can be installed around obstacles on the wall such as pipes, sinks, or furniture. This is the best solution to straighten the wall over time, as it can fix severe problems and stabilize the foundation for good!

The WaterGuard™ system is designed to capture water seepage from the walls and floor of the basement and direct it to the sump pump. WaterGuard™ is installed just below the floor slab, out of the "mud zone," where it won't clog with dirt and debris. This ensures that water is collected and funneled away from the basement, preventing any standing water or moisture buildup. This leaves the homeowner with peace of mind that their basement will stay dry.

IceGuard™ is a crucial addition to any sump pump system, including the TripleSafe™ Sump Pump, as it provides an essential safeguard against winter conditions. One of the primary benefits of IceGuard™ is its ability to prevent the sump pump's drain lines from freezing.

IceGuard™ features a specially designed outlet that allows water to escape even if the drain lines are frozen, ensuring that the sump pump can continue to operate effectively. This means that even in the harshest winter conditions, the TripleSafe™ Sump Pump system remains functional, providing continuous protection against basement flooding. By ensuring that the drain lines remain clear and operational, IceGuard™ enhances the overall reliability and performance of the sump pump system, giving homeowners added peace of mind.
