Many basements get flooded because of clogged or non-existant gutters, downspouts or downspout extensions. Although keeping gutters and downspouts clean and clear of clogs isn't a basement waterproofing solution (think of all the rain that falls onto the loose soil around your foundation), it will definitely help to alleviate some of the water that enters your basement. Even if you have a basement waterproofing system installed in your home, getting roof water away from the foundation will lessen the load on your system and sump pump.



The RainChute downspout extension is recessed in the ground, so it doesn't detract from your home's curb appeal and doesn't interfere with your lawn mower -- you never have to move it. RainChute downspout extensions will never clog because they self-flush leaves and derbis away and freezing won't affect the use.	The RainChute EZ rain gutter downspout extension directs roof water away from the foundation quickly and easily. It's best for where there is a landscape area near the foundation. RainChute EZ is above ground and takes downspout water 3 to 8 feet away from the foundation.	The LawnScape Outlet grate disperses water at the end of an underground downspout extension or sump pump discharge line. The LawnScape Outlet is strong enough to ride your lawn tractor over and the lid comes off for easy cleaning. It's best for downspout extensions or sump pump discharge lines over eight feet long.
