Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Replacing a Sump Pump and Waterproofing a Basement in Saint Peters, MO
Water was entering a basement in Saint Peters, MO, and the sump pump was not removing this water properly. To solve these issues, the WaterGuard System was first installed. This drainage system is installed adjacent to the home and provides a channel that connects to the sump pump. Its design will drain any wall seepage without allowing dirt and debris from the floor to enter and clog the pipes. Next, the old sump pump was replaced with the TripleSafe Sump Pump System. 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 which reduces noise, prevents objects from falling in, and keeps moisture, insects, and odor from coming out of the sump. This system also includes an UltraSump battery backup system which turns on if the power goes out and effectively pumps out the water. Thanks to these systems, this basement will stay dry all the time!
