Waterproofing A Crawl Space in Plainfield, WI
Challenge
The crawl space of this home in Plainfield, WI had major water issues. Water was getting into the crawl space and with no system in place to drain it, it was beginning to flood.
Solution
To drain and discharge the water getting into the crawl space, Sure-Dry Basement Systems installed their TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System. The TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System provides three levels of protection for your basement and your peace of mind. For normal functioning, the TripleSafe™ has a powerful, cast-iron Zoeller® ⅓ horsepower sump pump set at the lowest level. For heavy volumes of water or in case of primary pump failure, a second, more powerful Zoeller® ½ hp pump set a bit higher in the liner will take over. In case of a power outage, our UltraSump® battery backup sump pump, set at the highest level, will pump 11,500 gallons or more on a fully charged battery!
To create a vapor barrier between the home and the moisture from the crawl space walls, Sure-Dry installed their CleanSpace® Crawl Space Vapor Barrier. This durable, bright white crawl space liner installs on the walls and floors, preventing water vapor and humidity from passing through. By keeping your crawl space dry, you protect your structure and insulation from mold and rot.
With a 25-year warranty against rips and tears, this durable 20-mil poly-reinforced crawl space liner converts your crawl space into a usable storage area. And with its mold-resistant additive "UltraFresh", CleanSpace® will never support mildew or mold growth on its surface.
