Cumberland Center, ME Basement Receives Needed Sump Upgrade

Challenge

A homeowner in Cumberland Center, ME had a basement with a functional sump. However, this sump had lately failed during a power outage, flooding the basement with water. Needing the space dried out and more protection to be put in place, this homeowner called TC Hafford Basement Systems.

Solution

Once the TC Hafford crew arrived, they got started on the basement right away. To assist the sump in the floor of the basement, we attached an UltraSump backup battery. This battery will give the sump an extra lifespan of 11,000 gallons worth of pumping before requiring a charge. This should protect the home from power outage floods in the future. To handle the water now lingering in the air of the space, we installed a SaniDry XP dehumidifier. The SaniDry will take in the damp air, pulling out the moisture and passing it on to the sump for removal. The dried air is then circulated back into the basement.

With these new installations complete, this homeowner can now continue to utilize their basement without the need to fear a potential flood during a power outage. Water damage is no longer a concern thanks to the UltraSump backup battery.
