Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Replacing a Sump Pump in Frontenac, MO
A sump pump in Frontenac, Missouri, was no longer keeping water out of this basement and needed to be replaced. To fix the problem, Woods came in and installed a new sump pump to address the water issues. The TripleSafe Sump Pump System is a top-of-the-line system, with multiple pumps to ensure that no amount of water is too much to remove. This system also includes the UltraSump Battery Back-Up Pumping System. This extra pump will kick on in the event of a power outage. Next, 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. Lastly, a LawnScape Outlet was installed. This connects the discharge lines to a special extension sending water away from the foundation while camouflaging the end of the pipe. Thanks to these systems, this basement will now remain dry all the time!
