Photo Album: Basement Protected Against Leaks in Little Neck, Queens
A homeowner in Little Neck, Queens had some minor leaking in his basement after rains. Minor leaking gets worse before it gets better, so he called Quality 1st Basement Systems to fix the problem right away. A basement specialist visited his home and inspected the property. He suggested a basement drain, a sump pump and a dehumidifier. The homeowner listened to all the product details and loved how they all worked together.
First, the WaterGuard basement drain was installed to drain the flood water to a sump pump. Since it installed inside the basement, the WaterGuard never clogs with roots or dirt like outdoor French drains. Once the water is gathered, it is drained to the TripleSafe sump pump. The TripleSafe sump pump was the best choice for the homeowner because it has three powerful sump pumps and a battery back up. The homeowner was worried that if a powerful storm came and his power went out, that his basement would flood. But with the TripleSafe, even when the electricity isn't working, the battery powered engine will still pump out water and keep the basement safe.
Quality 1st Basement Systems installed a FloodRing water heater protector. The FloodRing connects with the basement drain, and if the water heater leaks the basement will not flood. Water heater leakage is one of the most common ways a basement can flood, so the homeowner was glad to have protection. In order to lower the basement's humidity, a SaniDry dehumidifier was installed. The SaniDry removes moisture from the air, keeping the basement dry and healthy. This will prevent mold from growing, and will improve air quality. The homeowner now feels safe knowing that his basement is protected with several high quality products!
