This homeowner had a previous company come and install a sump pump in their crawl space. It began overfilling, unable to control the passage of water, and the crawl space started to flood. They called John's Waterproofing about getting their sump pump replaced and finding a long-term option for keeping water out of the crawl space. We informed them about our TripleSafe sump pump being the perfect solution to their problem. The TripleSafe sump pump is a three-pump system designed to be able to safely collect gallons of water and push it out and away from the homes foundation. We install it in a 22 in. deep trench at the lowest point in the crawl space so that water collected from a perforated pipe can be securely guided to the sump pump. The pipe goes inside the container bin to ensure the water gets exactly where the pump needs it to be. The first pump is a high quality 1/3 hp Zoeller pump that has a sensor so whenever water gets to a certain point, it knows to begin sending it out through the discharge line. The second pump is a 1/2 hp Zoeller pump that's set higher in the sump hold. It turns on in the event that the first pump can't keep up with the high volume of water. This is one reason for how our sump pumps differ from others, because there are two pumps which work together to ensure no water gets back into the crawl space. The final pump is a battery operated pump in case of a power outage. Ensuring that no matter the circumstance, your sump pump will be able to still pump water out. We also schedule annual maintenance checks on our TripleSafe sump pumps so that homeowners feel comfortable that it won't fail. Overall, at John's Waterproofing we want to keep crawl spaces as dry and healthy as possible and that begins with a proper way to dispel the water.
