A homeowner in Danvers, Massachusetts, had water entering their basement for a couple of years now. They were planning on having the basement finished in the future so they would like to stop the water from entering the basement. The homeowners call EFS for a free inspection and our Design Specialist John recommended installing a full perimeter drainage system, with BrightWall and a SaniDry.
Our installation team installed our TripleSafe sump into the low corner of the basement so any water in the basement would flow toward it. Our team plumbed the TripleSafe to the exterior of the home where we installed an IceGuard and an exterior drainage line that was over 100' long to customer specifications. After the TripleSafe and the drainage line were installed, the team then moved on to installing the 116' of WaterGuard and BrightWall into the basement. The team had to chip out the concrete around the entire perimeter of the basement so they could install the bottom of the BrightWall and the WaterGuard system. The team first had to install the bottom of the BrightWall before they could install the WaterGuard. This will allow the water to travel down the BrightWall and into the WaterGuard to then travel to the TripleSafe. After both the WaterGuard and BrightWall were installed the team mixed up concrete over the WaterGuard and around the TripleSafe. After all of the concrete was laid over the WaterGuard and around the TripleSafe the team then installed the SaniDry and set the condensation line into the TripleSafe.
