Sump Pumps Before & After Photos

Any Henderson, KY basement experiencing flooding needs a reliable, powerful sump pump constructed of quality components.  This is a SuperSump Sump Pump from Basement Systems.  Our Healthy Spaces installation team is trained to install this remarkably compact, reliable Zoeller sump pump with our Waterguard Basement Waterproofing perimeter drain system.  As you can see here, the pump is placed into a  cut out in the basement slab, which is then filled with rock to allow the water to freely enter the perforated sump pump basket.  The basket and entire shell are composed of rigid, durable plastic that will not degrade, warp or crack like other pumps.  The tight-fitting lid ensures that outside debris stay out, but there is still a drain in the lid to handle those unexpected plumbing emergencies like a broken pipe.  There is a WaterWatch alarm housed in the lid as well, which will alert the homeowners if the pump fails, becomes overwhelmed, or loses power in the midst of a storm and is being filled.  Finally, you can see the rigid PVC style discharge line  and dedicated outlet that make this sump pump system dependable--you don't have to worry about an overloaded circuit or a kinked discharge line.  If your sump pump doesn't match these standards, it is time to have one of our Waterproofing Experts out to show you how Healthy Spaces can keep your basement dry all the time!

A homeowner in Madisonville, KY reached out to Healthy Spaces regarding water getting into the basement of her home. After calling Healthy Spaces for a free, no-obligation estimate, it was decided to install a TripleSafe sump pump in a different corner of the basement would be the choice in keeping her basement dry all the time. 

Our team also installed our WaterGuard perimeter drainage system, along with CleanSpace wall system. 

In Evansville, IN, a homeowner needed a functional system to control the water that was escaping into the basement. As the rain weather carried on, the problem gradually became worse, requiring the homeowner to reach out to us about their concerns. A basement that leaks water becomes useless since it's unsafe to store keepsake items or furniture without it being ruined. The homeowner was ready to transform the unusable space into a livable and safe place. 

A small trench was formed alongside the walls for the WaterGuard to go into. The WaterGuard sits on top of the footing and is designed not to clog. This is an important feature because it keeps mud from getting into the drain. The next system that was installed was the UltraSump pump. The UltraSump pump is not only made up of a sump but other helpful features. The sump system has an airtight sump lid, floor drain in the sump lid, pump stand, and a pump alarm. 

In Oakland City, IN, the homeowner was having a problem with their basement leaking. The problems did not start until the tornado had struck near their home, and the rain storm had also flooded about three inches. Upon inspection of the home, their old sump pump was located outside, Having a sump pump outside will not solve leaking problems since water from the outside could also flood the sump pump. Sump pumps are encouraged to be installed indoors, where the weather can does not affect them and it will successfully pump water out of the basement. 

Since the homeowners had dealt with heavy rain in the past, the past, the TripleSafe sump pump was the best choice for this case. The TripleSafe sump pump is the king of all sump pumps due to the ability to store three sump pumps in one liner. Pump one is a high-quality Zoeller pump. Pump two is set a bit higher in the sump hole, that turns on in the event the first pump would fail or can not keep up. The second pump is more powerful and has a separate discharge line. Pump three is a battery-operated UltraSump pump that kicks in if the power goes out. The homeowner was relieved to know that their new sump pump system will keep their basement dry from future storms. 

A church in Mount Vernon, IN, needed a sump pump replacement. Someone from the church had reached out to us in hopes of purchasing a Zoeller pump that would last much longer compared to the plastic one that was currently in use. During heavy rainfall, the old sump pump that was in use, could not keep up with the amount of water coming in, causing small puddles to form on the ground of the basement. The pump needs to be replaced with a reliable cast-iron pump in case of a plumbing leak. A pump transformation was underway!

The UltraSump pump was the best option to be installed in the basement. The UltraSump is made up of the sump liner on the outside, that has holes all over to accept water directly from the ground. An airtight sump lid prevents water from evaporating into your basement, to stop stuff from falling and clogging the pump. A floor drain in the sump lid is included if the basement were to ever flood, there would be a hole for the water to escape to. A pump stand is placed inside the sump liner to elevate the pump above the bottom of the sump liner, allowing sediment, mud, and debris, to settle to the bottom without clogging or otherwise affecting the pump. In case the sump pump would ever fails or if the basement was in danger of flooding, a pump alarm is fastened on top of the airtight lid. A battery-powered alarm that sounds automatically when the water reaches a level above the point where the pump should normally turn on is essential. With the new sump pump being installed, the church will now be dry, even on rainy days.
