Photo Album: Installation of a SuperSump® Sump Pump System at a Client's House in Blainville !
A client from Blainville lived in his house for more than 14 years, when he began to have some problems with his sump pump. At a certain point, the owner of the house was left with over an inch of water in his basement.
This client wanted to proceed with finishing his basement, to take advantage of most of the space in his house. He then called us in order to get a free inspection of his basement. Our expert came to the conclusion that the client needed a new sump pump, in order to have a completely dry basement.
The Systèmes Sous-sol Québec team went to the customer’s house in Blainville to install the new sump pump system (SuperSump®). This system has: a floor drain within the cover of the sump, a support stand for the pump and an alarm which sounds automatically when the water exceeds the level at which the pump should start up.
The homeowner could then proceed with finishing his basement.
The Cld Customer's Pump in a Wooden Box
In this photo you can see the box containing the old client pump. Pedestal pumps are not efficient as they tend to heat up easily. This wooden box is alos very cumbersome and not aesthetic.
The Old Customer's Pump in Blainville
Here is the old faulty pump that was installed in the basement. Our team removed it to make room for the new exclusive sump pump system (SuperSump®).
Installing the New Basket
You do not want your pump intake in a muddy hole in the floor. And you do not want it to be in a five-gallon container that does not contain a lot of water and whose cycle is very short. That is why we set up our own liner and cover the rest of the space with ¾ inch stones.
The Installation is Almost Over
After placing the stones and container, our team installed the rest of the sump pump system (SuperSump®). The pump is only one part of the sump pump system. In addition to the pump itself, other elements are crucial for any good sump pump system.

After installing the sump pump system, the team covers the ¾ inch stone with cement to make a durable and aesthetic installation. At the end, installers make a series of tests to ensure that the system works properly.
