Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Basement Waterproofing in Willimantic, CT
In this Willimantic, CT home the homeowners had a continuing water problem in their basement. The homeowners wanted the basement dry and they wanted it done right the first time, so they contacted the experts at Connecticut Basement Systems. Donald came out and fixed all of the issues that the homeowners had. We came in and installed our WaterGuard drain system to collect all the water that was coming in. The drain system is put in to the guard by jack hammering the ground and then putting it just above the foundation footing to prevent clogging. The drain system is then covered up with cement flush so that its like it never happened.
To collect all of the water from the drain system we installed our TripleSafe sump pump. This premier sump pump has a total of three pumps to make sure that no water comes into the basement. The first pump turns on at a rate of 2,220 gallons of water per hour. If the first pump can't handle it then the second pump will turn on and pump an additional 3,900 gallons an hour. If the power goes out then the third pump which is backed up by a battery will turn on and pump out as much as 11,500 gallons of water which is equivalent to half of the size of a olympic swimming pool.
The homeowners know now that they will no longer have any water issues to deal with. We are so happy to have them as a customer!
