Prevent Frozen Discharge Lines with IceGuard
Are you ready for winter?
Winterizing your home takes time, and it’s better to start early in the brisk autumn than wait for the winter winds and storms! Are your sump pump discharge lines ready? Sump pump discharge pipes keep water out, they drain water from the sump pump and away from the house.
In frosty weather, the water in discharge lines can freeze and clog the entire line up. When water can’t get out, it has to go somewhere, and so it floods back into the basement or crawl space. This is costly and timely to fix, not to mention dangerous and nasty! When snow and ice cover up the discharge line, a flood is waiting to happen.
The IceGuard is the Answer
Quality 1st Basement Systems has a little piece of magic that protects sump pump discharge lines from freezing: the IceGuard discharge line system. Normally, water passes through the slotted openings in the IceGuard and is drained safely. But when it gets clogged with ice, water escapes from the IceGuard fittings and prevents the discharge line from backing up.
The IceGuard does not need to be turned on with a switch or valve, it is constantly ready to protect the discharge line and keep the home safe. It is a patented design that is proven to work, no matter how cold the winters get.
