Photo Album: Water that is seeping in at the floor resolved in Cincinnati, OH
A Cincinnati homeowner called The Basement Doctor of Cincinnati regarding some problems with water seeping into the basement. We installed the patented WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System along with a SuperSump Premier Sump Pump System and an UltraSump Battery Back-up System.
WaterGuard is a sub-floor piping system used to intercept the water that is seeping into the basement and then drains it into the sump pump system to be pumped out of the basement.
The SuperSump PremierSump Pump System is a high-end Zoeller cast iron sump pump that is used to pump water out of the basement to keep the basement dry. The SuperSump can pump up to 2,650 gallons of water per hour out of the basement. It includes the WaterWatch Alarm, SuperLiner, Airtight Lid with an Airtight Floor Drain. The WaterWatch Alarm will sound if there is a pump or power failure. This will alert the homeowner to a problem with the system. The SuperLiner is a heavy-duty liner that will not cave in or crack and houses the pump. The Airtight Lid keeps the water from inside the liner from evaporating back into the basement, keeps objects from falling into the liner, and helps to quiet the pump. The Airtight Floor Drain will allow water from a plumbing leak to drain into the drain but will not let it come back up into the basement.
The UltraSump Battery Back-up Sump Pump will turn on during a pump or power failure and will pump water out of the basement using battery power. It comes with its own battery pack and charging station.
