Basement Waterproofing Sump Pump Installed in Warsaw, MN

Groundwater was leaking through Sandie K.'s basement carpet, causing her to worry about the value of her home and property damage. She found an American Waterworks advertisement in her phonebook, so she called our office number and requested a FREE Estimate with one of our design team. One of our Design Specialists went to her home, inspected the problems, and proposed the solution of our TripleSafe Sump Pump System. Sandie was confident in the product and its warranty, so she went ahead with the repairs and scheduled an installation date. 

Our Foreman and his production team began the project by breaking out the concrete floor with a jackhammer, forming a round hole. In the hole, our team installed our sump basket, followed by the pumps and battery back-up. Our TripleSafe solves all three water problems in one system, it provides three layers of water protection, and it is the most reliable sump pump that we offer for homeowners. To complete the project, our team filled the open gaps with river rock and applied new concrete over it, ensuring the basement was cleaner than when they found it.

Out of Date Sump Pump Replaced in Inver Grove Heights, MN

There was a recent storm in Inver Grove Heights, MN, and a homeowner lost their power. The following day, the homeowner noticed standing water in his basement. He decided to look into updated sump pumps that will operate during power outages and found one of our job stories. The homeowner looked through our website to learn more about our sump pump lineup and wanted to get our TripleSafe installed, so he contacted us to schedule his FREE estimate. 

In a couple of weeks, one of our Design Specialists arrived at the home to assess the basement. He explained to the homeowner that our TripleSafe sump pump would provide his home with three levels of protection. The primary pump is placed at the lowest level and is capable of pumping out 2,200 gallons of water per hour. The second pump is placed slightly higher in case the primary pump fails or becomes overwhelmed. The third pump is our battery backup that can pump out water during power outages, which is perfect for what the homeowner is looking for. Along with explaining our TripleSafe sump pump, our Design Specialist also suggested installing our IceGuard discharge line attachment that will not freeze under harsh temperatures. The homeowner happily agreed to our Design Specialist's suggestion and decided to move forward with the design.

In a couple of months, our Foreman, Diego B., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They replaced the old sump pump with our TripleSafe and installed two IceGuards outside of the home, connecting it to the sump pump. Once the crew was done with the installation, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

Now, our customer has a sump pump system that can operate during power outages! Is your sump pump out of date? Schedule your FREE estimate with one of our experts today!
