The Water Guard system - more info
The patented Water Guard system is installed just under the floor at the wall floor junction around the perimeter of your basement. It has holes in the back to accept water and a special flange on the back allowing it to intercept water penetrating at height levels. The Water Guard channels control water movement by diverting it to a Super Sump or another drain, where it can be safely removed from the property without trace to you inside the home.
