Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Basement Systems Calgary, AB
This homeowner in Southeast Calgary, Alberta noticed water leaking in through foundation cracks around the basement.
A System Design Specialist was able to assess the situation and provide the homeowner with a FREE, no-obligation quote.
Then, our production team went to the home to install a WellDuct® Window Well Drain which is designed to prevent basement flooding due to window well leakage. The low profile WellDuct® system channels excess water from the exterior window well down and behind the installed CleanSpace® vapor barrier. The CleanSpace® vapor barrier is installed along the walls of the basement and is made of a 100% waterproof plastic. It has a 25-year warranty for wear and tear, it's durable, washable, and has anti-microbial protection called UltraFresh built right in! The wall vapor barrier ties into our patented WaterGuard® drainage system which is then directed to the SuperSump® sump pump system. A full-featured system, SuperSump® includes a top-rated 1/3HP Zoeller® pump, which is designed for reliability & high-volume pumping.
The system will discharge any water entering the sump pump basin to the exterior of the home passing through our patented IceGuard® system, which is 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.
The exterior discharge line has been buried below-grade, ending off with a bubbler pot away from the home installed flush with the grass on the lawn.
