Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Sump Pump and Basement Drain in Pottersville, NJ

A homeowner in Pottersville, NJ had a damp basement and noticed he had efflorescence on the floor. There were signs of water seepage along the walls, but no standing water. Concerned that the leaking would only get worse and cause a domino effect, she called Quality 1st Basement Systems for internal waterproofing. Quality 1st Basement Systems installed an internal WaterGaurd basement drain along the perimeter of the basement. Internal basement drains do not clog with outdoor debris, so they will continue to drain water out at a consistent rate. It is installed on top of a bed of rocks to keep the drain clean and away from dirt. The wall flange collects water seepage and then drains it out to a sump pump. The homeowner chose the best sump pump for the job: The TripleSafe sump pump. The TripleSafe is incredibly powerful. It has three pumps and can remove up to 2,200 gallons of water per hour. With its battery back up, it will continue to work even if the power goes out. The homeowner feels safe with the internal waterproofing system. Damp walls are no longer a problem and she doesn't worry about the weather!
