This Newburgh, IN home was experiencing regular crawlspace flooding due to the high water table in the area. The homeowners knew that simply installing a vapor barrier was not sufficient--they had two previous vapor barriers fail. They also needed a state of the art, energy efficient, durable sump pump system to remove ground water from below the vapor barrier.
The homeowners met with Healthy Spaces to discuss having their crawlspace encapsulated and waterproofed. The most efficient sump pump for their needs was a SuperSump--a Zoeller sump pump with some very important features contributing to its longevity. For example, the SuperSump has an airtight lid that will isolate the encapsulated crawlspace from the water in the sump basket. There is also a WaterWatch alarm in the sump pump lid, which will alert the homeowners if the pump becomes overwhelmed.

Design Specialist, Jimmy Schaefer, took a thorough look and quickly came to a conclusion..the crawlspace was in need of encapsulation and a SmartSump pump system. EZ Flow drain and Ice guard also needed to be implemented to control any flooding and excess water
SmartSump pump system was installed which included a cast iron pump, airtight lid and floordrain. This also came with a WaterWatch alarm system which works to emit very loud sounds if it is overfilled. The EZ Flow drain and discharge line were fashioned around the perimeters to control any excess water and displace it away from the crawlspace. CleanSpace Drainage matting was placed to ensure space for water underneath and to avoid any puncture damage to the encapsulation. Finally, the SaniDry Sedona was placed to reduce humidity and the rest of the basement was sealed efficiently with foam insulation in any cracks or holes.
