3 Must-Haves to Protect Your Home This Spring
“April showers...bring more flooding.” Those are the words you may be saying to yourself if your basement isn’t protected. Now with spring into play, it is important to make sure your basement stays dry. Continue below to find out the three must-haves to protect your home this spring.
Dehumidifer
Since mold begins with moisture, it is important to have a dehumidifier. A dehumidifier will help reduce the relative humidity in the basement or crawlspace, which will in turn prevent mold growth that can cause you allergies as well as damage the structural integrity of your home.
Fortress Foundation Solutions offers a SaniDry Dehumidifier which can remove 110 pints of water per day. SaniDry is energy efficient, will help in improving air quality, and will help prevent mold in your basement or crawlspace.
Interior Drain System
With heavy rain comes more opportunity for water leaks. Installed inside the perimeter of the basement floor, an interior drain system will assist in directing water to the sump pump.
WaterGuard is equipped with large drain holes to prevent clogging. By collecting ground water and leaks from the wall, WaterGuard will direct the water to the sump pump, helping to ensure a dry basement.
Battery Backup Sump Pump
Since heavy rain, winds, and storms are common this time of the year, that can mean power outages. If a power outage were to happen during a heavy rain, your electric sump pump wouldn't be able to work alone. By getting a battery backup sump pump, it will make it possible for your basement to stay protected.
A TripleSafe Sump Pump is offered by Fortress Foundation Solutions to further your basement protection. It not only comes with a battery backup, but the first two pumps work together in times of heavy rain to make sure your basement stays dry.
