Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Basement Floor Drainage System in SW Calgary, AB
This homeowner in SW Calgary, Alberta experiences water seepage issues from under their homes concrete floor slab in the basement. Looking for answers and a solution for this problem, they contacted the waterproofing and sump pump experts at Doug Lacey's Basement Systems.
A System Design Specialist was able to assess the situation and provide the homeowners with a FREE, no obligation quote on reducing the frequent water pressure from under the basement floor. Our Production Team was then able to then come to the home to install our SuperSump® sump pump system along with a lateral drainage line. A full-featured system, SuperSump® includes the best components available including a top-rated 1/3HP Zoeller® pump is designed for reliability & high-volume pumping. In case of a power outage, our UltraSump® battery backup sump pump is tied into the system, set at the highest level the UltraSump® will pump 11,500 gallons or more on a fully charged battery. From there the system will discharge any water entering the sump pump to the exterior of the home passing through our patented IceGuard® system, an anti-freeze fitting that is installed outside of your home and ejects water away from the foundation in the event that the sump pump discharge lines freeze or become clogged.
