This homeowner’s old sump pump system was a complete disaster. It was allowing water to leak out everywhere, and pool onto the basement floor. That’s when The Basement Transformer answered the call to come and help. We gave this homeowner our state of the art, TripleSafe Sump Pump System. It is designed to discharge thousands of gallons of water out and away from a home, so that a wet basement is no longer a concern. This sump pump system features both a primary and secondary pump, along with an UltraSump battery-powered back up pump in case of failure or a power outage occurs. 

The primary pump is a Zoeller 1/3 horsepower sump pump that can discharge up to 2,220 gallons of water, while the secondary pump can get rid of up to 3,900 additional gallons of water. When fully charged, the battery powered back up pump can pump out 11,500 gallons of water or more! 

With our TripleSafe Sump Pump System installed, this homeowner became fully equipped with 3 levels of protection against flooding and achieved having a dry basement.

Job Stories From Lake Katrine, NY
Turning a Basement and Crawl Spaces into Dry Environments in Lake Katrine, NY

A homeowner in Lake Katrine, NY had two crawl spaces that needed to be encapsulated and a basement that needed to be protected from floods and humidity. In search of a solution, the homeowner reached out to our team here at The Basement Transformer to find out how we could help. Our specialist headed out to the home to inspect the crawl spaces and the basement to see what solutions our company could provide. He proposed that we install our CleanSpace Encapsulation System to seal the crawl spaces off from the earth, our TripleSafe Sump Pump System to protect the basement from floods, and the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to control the humidity.

The CleanSpace Encapsulation System is a 20-mil thick liner that is made using several layers of plastics. These plastics have different types of flexibility and resistance to tears and punctures. It is put together using two layers of polyester cord reinforcement, making it extremely durable. Once installed, this helps to prevent water vapor from seeping into your crawl space and turns your crawl space into a dry and healthy environment!

The TripleSafe Sump Pump System and SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier both got installed inside the basement. The TripleSafe Sump Pump is a state-of-the-art system that provides the ultimate protection against floods. It features two cast iron Zoeller horsepower pumps that can discharge thousands of gallons of water from your home. We also installed our UltraSump Battery Backup System along with it, which keeps the sump pump running smoothly in the event of a power outage or tripped circuit. On a fully charged battery and set at the highest level, it can discharge up to 11,500 gallons of water or more!

The SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier would ensure that the homeowner had a dry and healthy basement. This super-efficient dehumidifier has capability to remove up to 100 pints of water from your air every day. It then takes that dry air and pushes it all around your basement, making it dry and taking away that damp feeling. We even made sure to connect the dehumidifier to the sump pump, that way any water that is collected from the air automatically drains into the sump pump to get taken out and away from the home. Once the job was completed, the homeowner was left with a dry basement and dry crawl spaces!

Flood Prevention with TrenchDrain in Lake Katrine, NY

This homeowner in Katrine, NY wanted to make sure water could not get into their basement through the garage door and flood the surrounding area. 

To prevent this from happening, our team installed our TrenchDrain Grated Drain Pipe along with our TrenchLock Drain Inserts. The TrenchDrain is designed to collect the incoming water from the floor and funnels it back into your sump pump, to then be taken out of your basement. It is installed on the inside of the door as an added layer of protection against freezing during the wintertime. 

Our TrenchLock Drain inserts were also included to prevent any unwanted ground air or harmful gases from entering this homeowner’s basement. The TrenchLock system allows water to drain out, without air being able to enter because of the specially designed balls that fit over the drainage holes. When water enters, they float up and then back down again as the water leaves. 

Radon, which is a naturally occurring radioactive gas usually found in the ground, is not able to get inside your home with this system in place.

When our team was finished, this homeowner could finally feel at ease knowing their basement was protected against flooding and any harmful radon.
