WaterGuard is a waterproofing system designed to protect basements from water damage. It is a trench and channel drainage system that is installed around the perimeter of the basement to collect water that may leak through the walls or floor. The system consists of a PVC pipe that is buried in a trench filled with gravel, which is covered by a plastic membrane. This pipe leads water away from the basement and out to a sump pump, which pumps the water out of the basement and away from the foundation.
One of the key benefits of WaterGuard is that it is designed to work even in the event of a power failure. If the sump pump stops working for any reason, the system will automatically redirect water to a backup sump pump, ensuring that your basement remains dry and protected. Additionally, WaterGuard is designed to be completely hidden from view, so it won't detract from the appearance of your basement. With WaterGuard, you can enjoy a dry, comfortable basement without having to worry about the risk of water damage.
