Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Humidfity problems in Roxboro, Qc

Mr. Michael found it very strange that the humidity level was so high in his house. He knew he had bought a house with a sump pump and that it would take care of the water evacuation in case there was water infiltration, but he didn't understand why the air didn't wasn’t drie. He therefore called on experts in the field of humidity. After the full internal and external evaluation of our team, we realized that the house was unusually humid, even on the upper floors. We also found that the existing SuperSump pump needed to be replaced, along with the emergency battery in case of an UltraSump power failure. Subsequently, we also suggested an IceGuard and a LawnScape since the client had a beautiful lawn and several flowers that he did not want to ruin.

Very high humidity level in the house

A wet basement can create a lot of problems for your home when it comes to comfort and functionality.

This happens because the relative humidity increases by 4.4% for every degree Celsius of cooling.
