Sump pump systems will evacuate water before it seeps into the basement and causes flooding and damage. All the water intercepted is evacuated far from the house.
Our SuperSump pump system is a full-featured system that includes the best components available.
It has a superliner: the liner's airtight lid keeps out pests and debris, while also eliminating the safety hazard of an open sump pit. The WaterWatch alarm will ring when the water rises above the operating range of the pumps to warn you of a potential problem.
In addition, it is equipped with a powerful, top-quality Zoeller sump pump.
There has recently been water infiltration in this basement in Montreal. Stone walls like these are very conducive to water infiltration because of the spaces between the stones. The owner did not have a very efficient drainage system so he contacted Système Sous-sol Québec to waterproof his basement so that it remains dry at all times!
Our solution to waterproof our client's basement:
- A WaterGuard interior drain system. This is a network of conduits that runs along the perimeter of your basement floor, at the base of the foundation walls. This system collects the water and conveys it to the SuperSump sump pump system that we have installed.
- Install our SuperSump sump pump system. It expels the water that comes from the soil and the WaterGuard out and away from the foundation.
To finish it off, our experts installed our panels for EverLast walls. They are designed to resist mold and cannot be damaged by moisture.
With this solution, our client will have nothing to worry about and his basement will be permanently dry.
Water infiltration is a problem for many homeowners. Water can drive up under the foundation at the joints between the floor and the wall or through cracks in the walls as well. These situations are often due to a high water table, hydrostatic pressure, and the normal shrinkage of concrete.
This is what happened in this basement in Lasalle, and when we went to check up the area Mr. Neil informed us that it had been this way for years and he tried to fix it many times but it was all in vain.
We informed Mr. Neil then that the best thing to do is to waterproof the entire basement.
The waterproofing consists of the following:
An interior Drain called ‘The WaterGuard’ to capture wall and floor seepage before it reaches your basement floor; a ‘TripleSafe’ sump pump to pump the water out, and finally an ‘IceGuard’ accessory that prevents pipe freezing.
Our client from Lasalle informed us that she'd been having problems in her basement since the day she moved into the home.
There were cracks in the Foundation that were allowing water to infiltrate the basement space, allowing too much moisture and mold in the basement.
We have solved her problems by installing a WaterGuard interior that will direct the water to the SuperSump pump system.
The SuperSump pump will intercept all water seepage and pushes it away from her house.
Then our CleanSpace was installed on the walls to insulate the ground and block water vapor.
The TripleSafe system has three sump pumps, one of which is emergency battery operated. This system helps protect your basement against the risk of water damage during normal conditions, during heavy rains, and during power outages. The UltraSump alarm will notify you when the emergency failure is running.
The TripleSafe is very powerful and offers you 3 times more protection than a simple pump. In addition, are airtight lids helps block the water vapor so as not to humidify the air. To complete the system, we have recommended the SaniDry Upright XP dehumidifier that captures up to 100 pints of water per day from your basement. The captured water is then redirected to the sump pump system and automatically evacuated away from your home. Thus, you do not need to empty the tank every day.
