Flood Control System Installation & Repair
It is not always possible or practical to convert your home’s drain system to an overhead type. Perhaps your basement is finished or there are design limitations such as stairway placement, that will not allow for a practical overhead sewer conversion. In this case, one of our flood control systems may be the best way to go.
Pre-cast concrete or interlocking block walls
Two cast iron backwater valves. Double the protection should one valve fail or become obstructed
Heavy duty ejector pump, with the backup pump system as an option
Extra deep ejector basin for less pump cycling, longer pump life, extra capacity.
All metal (copper and brass) pump discharge piping for durability-no PVC in our systems.
All cast drain work within the system for durability-again, no PVC in our systems
Separate discharge wye fitting for the pump. Unlike most systems, which use a back-water valve cover connection for discharge, our method allows for easier service of backwater valves, provides proper directional flow from pump discharge, and lessens the chance of debris being pumped into the backwater valve, which can keep it from fully functioning.
Separate clean out ahead of flood control for easy future drain cleaning
Cast iron ring and cover to prevent tampering
Concrete floor
Ladder steps for easier future service
