A SuperSump pump was installed in the middle of the floor because it was the lowest point of the basement. This is odd as usually it is in the corner of the basement but it's important that a sump pump be at the lowest point. It is also connected to a lateral so that the water from the WaterGuard can still reach the SuperSump.

Teana has always had a drainage and sump pump system to address the leaking area in her basement, that was before she had issues with other areas leaking. She reached out to MidAmerica Basement Systems to have the leaking areas address. She was offered a whole new perimeter system called WaterGuard. WaterGuard is installed under the concrete floor to prevent water from surfacing, and helped redirect the water to the sump pump. Her current system was installed on top of the floor, which allows for more moisture to enter the air, increasing the humidity levels, and some areas even grew mold due to improper water flow to the sump pump.
