Photo Album: Encapsulating a crawl space in Saint-Zotique, Qc
We have encapsulated and sealed a crawl space in Saint-Zotique by installing our patented waterproofing products.
Thus, the hydrostatic pressure exerted on the walls of the house in question is no longer a risk. CleanSpace, SmartSump, EZflow, IceGuard and LawnScape products form a system that keeps this crawl space dry and usable for more useful purposes.
A dirty crawl space
A crawl space infiltrated with water makes the space damp, dirty and unusable. Encapsulation is a solution that solves the problems of water, humidity and odors.
A crawl space pre-encapsulation
Crawl spaces such as this one are not very sanitary. They are filled with water and moisture and can become infected with mold or other bacteria that is harmful to your health and the health of your organic building materials.
EZFlow drain installation
The EZFlow drain is perfect for crawl spaces that do not have jogging. He intercepts the water and redirects it to a sump pump system.
The SmartSump sump pump system
The SmartSump is the intelligent option for your crawl space. This system is equipped with a 1/3 HP Zoeller pump. This pump is the most efficient and durable on the market. It can pump between 2600 and 6200 gallons of water per hour (depending on the strength of the current)
Result of the encapsulation
The CleanSpace membrane gives a clean and illuminated effect while solving the problem of water infiltration and condensation of water vapor.
The encapsulation of a crawl space in Saint-Zotique
The CleanSpace drainage mat and the CleanSpace vapor barrier block water and water vapor infiltration and redirect it to a sump pump system that removes water from the house. Thus, the crawl space remains dry and can be used for useful purposes such as storing your seasonal items.
IceGuard and LawnScape
These accessories for discharge line are simple, but very important. The IceGuard placed at the wall allows the water to be evacuated by this outlet if the pipe freezes in the winter. LawnScape is a mouth of evacuation placed at the end of the pipe and prevents the pipe to be blocked by mud or other detriments while resisting the mower.
