Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Homeowner Concerned about not Having a Waterproofing System in SE Calgary, AB
This homeowner in Southeast Calgary, Alberta contacted the experts at Doug Lacey's Basement Systems in search of preventative waterproofing measures for their home.
A System Design Specialist was able to provide the homeowners with a FREE, no obligation quote designed specifically to address all of the homeowner's concerns. Our Production Team was then able to come to the home to install two SuperSump® sump pump systems. A full-featured sump pump system, SuperSump®, includes the best components available including a top-rated 1/3HP Zoeller® pump that is designed for reliability & high-volume pumping. Additionally, installed with the sump pumps is 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. Finally, the discharge line has been buried below-grade out of plain sight ending off with a Bubbler Pot away from the home installed flush with the grass on the lawn. The Bubbler Pot is designed in this way to make it easier to service and allows the homeowner to tend to their yard without the discharge line getting in the way.
