Quality 1st Service Technician Cameron took special care in performing annual maintenance on the SuperSump Sump Pump System at this home in Parkville, MD. After removing the airtight lid, he removed and disassembled the pump system for cleaning and to check all components. He also changed the check valves, cleaned the sump stands and liner, and then reassembled the system for testing. All set, the SuperSump was ready to jump back into action with the capability of removing up to 2,220 gallons of water per hour on the main 1/3 hp pump!
To begin annual maintenance on a SuperSump Sump Pump System, the airtight liner lid (developed to keep debris out of the sump pit) needs to be removed. At this Parkville, MD home, Service Technician Jordan proceeded to remove the 1/3 hp cast-iron Zoeller pump along with the UltraSump Battery Backup Pump. Jordan cleaned all of the components of these hard-working pumps, ensuring that their function remains in tip-top operating shape. Additionally, the liner was cleaned and sanitized before reassemble. Regular annual maintenance visits provide homeowners with freedom from worry over basement flooding with such a reliable wet basement solution!
Water was getting into the basement through the customer's window and just puddling on the floor. We corrected the issue by installing a Super Sump Pump, WaterGuard, and a Well Duct. The well duct installed will direct any water that gets in down to the WaterGuard, which then directs the water over to the Super Sump to get pumped out of the basement.
Customer reached out to us with concerns of the top portion of their foundation wall was bowing inward about 2 to 3 inches and feared after time this would only get worse.
Our solution for this bowing foundation wall was to install 5 Full Wall Channel Anchors, which will permanently stabilize the foundation wall and, in time, can straighten the wall back towards its original position.
This was a partially finished basement that in the warmer months, would become very humid. Humidity can lead to condensation, which can lead to mold. We came out and installed our SaniDry Upright XP Dehumidifier. This dehumidifier eliminates damp, musty odors by drying and filtering the air, all while being tucked away in the corner or closet of your basement.
