TripleSafe Sump Pump with SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifer
The TripleSafe Sump Pump and SaniDry Sedona work together to maintain a dry and healthy basement environment. The TripleSafe Sump Pump efficiently removes water that enters the basement, preventing flooding and water damage. Meanwhile, the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier controls moisture levels by removing excess humidity from the air. This combination ensures that any water entering the basement is promptly pumped out, while the dehumidifier prevents mold growth and maintains optimal air quality.

Sealed Drainage System
Sealing over the WaterGuard system with concrete ensures a stable and secure installation. This process helps to protect the drainage system from damage due to foot traffic or heavy objects being moved in the basement. Additionally, it provides a clean, finished look and prevents debris from entering the system, ensuring its long-term effectiveness in managing water seepage.

Trench For Drainage System
To create a trench for the WaterGuard system, first the team marked the perimeter of the basement with a chalk line. They cleared the area of debris and used a jackhammer to break up the concrete floor along the marked line. The trench is made wide and deep enough to ensure a level installation, as well as sloping towards the sump pit.

Weep Holes
Weep holes are drilled in block walls to allow water trapped within the blocks to drain into the WaterGuard system. This prevents water buildup inside the blocks, which can lead to pressure and potential wall damage. By providing an exit route for the water, weep holes help maintain the structural integrity of the wall and ensure the effectiveness of the drainage system.

Discharge Line
A discharge line is installed to direct water from the sump pump safely away from the foundation of the home. This prevents water from re-entering the basement or causing erosion around the foundation.

Covering Discharge Line
The discharge line trench is carefully filled with the soil removed when digging the line.

Moisture Indication
Efflorescence is a sign of moisture intrusion because it occurs when water moves through masonry, carrying dissolved salts to the surface. As the water evaporates, it leaves behind the salt deposits, which appear as a white, powdery substance. This process indicates that water is penetrating the masonry, suggesting potential issues with moisture infiltration that may require attention.
