Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Basement Waterproofing in Lac-Drolet, QC
The basement during our inspection
There were some signs of excess humidity, thus urging the same to be waterproofed in order to prevent any possible structural damages
Installation of WaterGuard internal drain
The drain is placed on the foundation footing, away from mud and dirt to prevent clogging. The infiltrated water will be directly captured by the drain, thanks to the ⅜-inch protruding lip that channels water from the walls directly into the system. And to optimize the efficiency of the drain, we installed the TrenchDrain system to prevent water from entering through the stairs. In fact, TrenchDrain will directly channel water to the WaterGuard drain.
The TripleSafe sump pump system
This system consists of three pumps: The first reliable and efficient 1/3 HP Zoeller pump, the second 1/2 HP Zoeller pump which operates when the first pump needs assistance, and the third backup pump that activates in case of a power outage.
IceGuard system to protect the discharge lines
We connected our interior drain to a discharge line that will lead the water outside. This discharge line includes our patented IceGuard system, designed to eliminate the risk of flooding if this line freezes during cold periods.
