Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Sump Pump and Exterior Discharge System Installation in Manchester, NH

A homeowner in Manchester, New Hampshire prides herself on taking very good care of her home. Water enters through her foundation by the sewer during heavy rains, which becomes a very tedious cleanup process. Afraid that leaks will cause damage to the basement while she's away, she reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions to permanently waterproof the basement. Our Design Specialist, Josh Phillips, recommended installing WaterGuard perimeter drainage and SuperSump sump pump. This system is designed to capture water around the perimeter of the basement and deliver it to the sump basin. From the sump basin, it is pumped out of the home through an exterior discharge line. This waterproofing system provides the homeowner with the peace of mind that she was looking for. She can now travel knowing that her basement will stay dry all the time.

Perimeter Drainage and Sump Pump Installation

WaterGuard is installed along the area that was at risk of seepage. It delivers water to the TripleSafe, which is a three-pump system, composed of a primary, secondary, and battery-powered backup pump. This system guarantees that water will be captured and delivered out of the home at all times.

IceGuard

A discharge line is installed and plumbed to the front yard of the home to guide water out of the basement. IceGuard is built into the discharge line to prevent it from freezing. In the event that water in the pipe were to freeze, the line and sump basin could get backed up, resulting in a basement flood.
