Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: New Sump Pump Installed at a Home in Airdrie, AB
This homeowner in Airdrie, Alberta encountered issues with basement moisture as a result of the exterior window wells routinely pooling with water and seepage where the wall and floor meet inside the home. Wanting to remove the moisture and any water from the interior of the home, they contacted the experts at Doug Lacey's Basement Systems.
A System Design Specialist went to the home to assess the situation and provide the homeowners with a FREE, no obligation quote. Our Production Team then installed a WellDuct® Window Well Drains designed to prevent basement flooding due to window well leakage. The low profile WellDuct® system channels excess water from the exterior window wells down into the WaterGuard® Below-Floor Drain System. Designed with a built-in wall flange which extends up your basement wall by 3/8", any water leaking from the walls will move downward and behind this flange where it is then directed to the SuperSump® sump pump system. 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.
