Basement Waterproofing - Pump it Out!

Thursday, February 13th, 2020 by Jennifer Pierce

Here in Tennessee and Southern Kentucky we can count on one thing RAIN!  and a lot of it. All that rain has to go somewhere, and if we are lucky it goes in the steams, and rivers, and just flows away. But when we're not so lucky it goes right into our Basements and Crawl Spaces. It comes in thought the ground, the walls, vents, and any other way it can find. Then we are stuck with a wet mess. Now most of us have some kind of waterproofing system which includes a sump pump in place for this reason. And everything is fine until one of three things happens.

1-the pump fails, 

2-the pump cannot handle the high volume of rain,

3-the power goes out.

We have the solution to these problems, The Triple Safe assures protection from all three of these issues. The way it works is like this if pump 1 fails pump 2 takes over, or if pump 1 can’t handle the amount of water then pump 1 and 2 operate together. Together they can pump up to 6200 gallons per hour. And if the power fails, Pump 3 is a battery-operated Ultra Sump, that will take over.

Pump 1 does most of the pumping, most of the time, it’s a reliable, efficient, smooth-running it is a 1/3 hp cast iron pump.

Pump 2 operates when either pump 1 fails, or if pump 1 cannot keep up when they work together, they can pump up to 6200 gallons per hour. Pump 2 is a larger pump giving you a turbo boost, Its a 1/2 hp high volume pump.

Pump 3 is an Ultra Sump battery back-up Pumping System, It is DC operated if the power goes out the Ultra Sump turns on, using the battery power to remove the water. (Battery and automatic charging system are included with the TripleSafe Sump Pump.)

The TripleSafe Sump Pump has a few special features that should be mentioned, A unique "figure eight" design allows the 3 sump pumps to fit perfectly in the TripleSafe liner.

It also comes equipped with an airtight floor drain in case of a plumbing leak. A floating ball in the drain creates the seal.

 An alarm sounds off if the water rises above the operating range of the pumps. This warns you there is a problem before damage occurs, This is our patented “WaterWatch” Alarm.

The removable lid makes it easy for inspections and service.

3 pump stands fit in the bottom ensuring silt and sediment don’t block the flow to the water inlet on the bottom of the pumps.

All of these things are Unique to our TripleSafe Sump Pump. So you can have the peace of mind that your basement or crawl space will remain dry no matter how much rain mother nature throws at us.
