Ensuring a Dry Basement in Freeland
Challenge
The homeowner in Freeland, PA was experiencing persistent water intrusion into their basement. The culprit was identified as hairline cracks in the concrete block wall, leading to unwanted water seepage and a damp, unhealthy environment.
Solution
The team at Liberty Basement Systems devised a comprehensive solution to address the water intrusion. Their primary installation was the WaterGuard® system, strategically placed beneath the basement floor. This innovative drainage system is designed to efficiently collect any water seeping through the walls, preventing it from reaching the basement living space.
To manage the collected water, Liberty Basement Systems integrated their SuperSump sump pump system. This robust system features a high-volume Zoeller pump, capable of handling significant water flow, ensuring rapid removal of collected water. For added peace of mind, the SuperSump also includes a built-in alarm, alerting the homeowner to any potential pump malfunctions or power outages, allowing for immediate intervention during emergencies.
The proactive approach implemented by Liberty Basement Systems successfully transformed the homeowner's basement. The WaterGuard® system effectively channels all seepage, while the SuperSump provides reliable and high-capacity water removal. The "after" state of the basement revealed a clean, dry, and secure environment, free from the previous water intrusion issues. This solution provided the homeowner with dependable moisture management and a significantly improved basement space.
