The Importance of a Great Sump Pump
Challenge
Having lived in the home for a little over two years, this Bangor, ME homeowner wanted to address the mess that their sump pump had become over the years. The open pit and leaky pipes were not only inefficient, but also leaky as well. Wanting to take care of the issue, the homeowner called TC Hafford and requested a free estimate. System Design Specialist Craig Ziegenbein met with the homeowner and worked with them to design a system that would fulfil the needs of the basement.
Solution
The old sump was removed, and a brand new SuperSump was installed at the lowest point to make sure all water would be channeled efficiently. New piping was run and connected to a Buried Discharge line outside of the home to take water away from where it could ever be a problem. All Discharge lines are equipped with IceGuard to protect against freezing, ensuring that the system stay efficient even during the harsh Maine winters.
The homeowner is now set up for success and can enjoy spending time in their home without being concerned about their basement year-round.
