This customer's existing sump pump was causing too much humidity and odours in the basement, especially because the pit is open. In addition, having a plastic pump which overheats, a ball on a wire floater which gets stuck, and no back-up system left the client vulnerable to basement floods. We replaced this with our SuperSump system and a back-up Ultrasump system. Now this homeowner can have peace of mind, that the water will be diverted away from his basement, even if there is a power outtage!
This customer contacted us because he wanted to change his sump pump. So we sent one of our certified specialists in basement waterproofing and he presented him with several options that could meet his demands.
This Blainville customer finally opted for our TripleSafe pump. This sump pump system has three pumps, so three more protection against possible flooding or water infiltration.
The first pump is used to pump water under normal conditions.
In case your main pump breaks down or is at maximum capacity, the second pump will take over and help the main pump to evacuate the water. In addition, this system is accompanied by a third pump in case there is a failure of the sump system or if there is a tripping of the circuit breaker.
In short, equipped with the TripleSafe system, this Blainville client will have no fear and can have a peace of mind, because his basement is equipped with an excellent system.
Mr. Pomerleau contacted us because his basement was experiencing water infiltration. After our free inspection, our specialist found the perfect solution for our client. Our team installed an interior foundation drain under the concrete slab. Then we installed a SuperSump, which is a sump pump system that can be installed with a battery backup pump. Then, to prevent flooding due to frozen pipes in winter, we installed an IceGuard system that provides a second flow path for water.
The problem
Our client Mr. Pires had recently bought a house in Saint-Philippe. It had a very noisy and unreliable sump pump system and was worried that his system will not be able to expel the water during heavy rain or on spring. So he contacted Systèmes Sous-sol Québec after seeing many sump pump system solutions.
The solution
Replace our client’s sump pump with our SuperSump sump pump system. This system features a powerful ⅓ HP Zoeller cast iron sump pump capable of pumping 8,300 liters of water per hour out of the basement to a height of 8 feet. It is also possible to insert a battery-operated pump. This way, in case of a power failure, the sump pump system will still work.
With this solution, Mr. Pires can have the peace of mind since he now has an efficient and reliable sump pump system.
We have stabilized our client’s foundations permanently. Our support pile system has been proven as an effective permanent solution and our Push Pier support pillars can be installed from inside and outside and the finish will be clean and neat.
