Sump Pump Installation Before & After Photos

The problem

Mr. Yang had a sump pump system that was not working very well and was unreliable because it often stoped. On top of that, his pump system stops working during power outages and he does not have a "back up" pump. This worried him, because 2 years ago, he experienced a flood in his basement. He contacted Systèmes Sous-sol Québec for a free estimate to install a reliable and efficient sump pump system in order to prevent another flood.

The solution

Replacing our customer's sump pump system that no longer worked well for our TripleSafe system. This is our most efficient solution, because this system includes 3 pumps; a Zoeller 1/3 HP cast iron main pump, a second Zoeller 1/2 HP pump which engages if the quantity of water to be evacuated becomes important and then a third UltraSump battery backup pump which activates during power outages. In addition to this, a WaterWatch alarm sounds to alert you when the water level exceeds the limit where the pump should have been running. An external discharge line to evacuate water away from the house has been installed. It includes our IceGuard emergency water drainage system which allows water to be drained in the event of freezing or blocked discharge line. This prevents water from backing up into the basement.

With the TripleSafe system, Mr. Yang will have the peace of mind, because in case of a power failure or not, he has a reliable and efficient system.

Our customer in Montreal contacted our company after having many failures in his existing pump system.

Our team has replaced it with the SuperSump sump pump system which is one of the best sump pump systems that come with an alarm system, a waterproof drain and a Zoeller pump.

One of our customers in Greenfield Park area needed to change her old sump pump. She contacted us to talk to one of our specialists. We advised her to install the TripleSafe 3 pumps in 1 system. The first pump operates under normal conditions, the second starts when there is a lot of water or in case that the first pump fails, and the third runs on battery power during power breakdown. Three pumps, three times more peace of mind!

When you have a sump pump that does not have a lid, it is highly likely that your pit is getting dirt and other contaminants in it, which can lead to clogs that will cause it to slow down or stop eventually.

So when we came to check this sump pump in Longueil, we knew right away that it needs to be replaced by a new one.

Our TripleSafe sump pump comes with a three-pump system that adjusts automatically to meet pumping requirements, in addition to a battery-powered pump to protect the place from flooding during power outages.

Ms. Perreault had a very wet crawl space that was not isolated. The humidity was felt all over the house so she was worried about the quality of the air in her home. She decided to call Systèmes Sous-sol Québec in order to solve her problems once and for all.

At start, our specialists installed our EZ Flow drainage system which was connected to our SuperSump sump pump system. This way, the water is directed down the drain and discharged by the sump pump. Then, in order to eliminate the humidity, our drainage membrane as well as our CleanSpace coating was installed. The membrane, among other things, allows surface water to flow into the sump pump system and create a thermal cushion. Our CleanSpace serves to insulate the house from the earthen floor and lock in moisture. It also gives a clear and clean appearance to the crawl space.
