A sump pump was not functioning properly in Rantoul, IL, so it was replaced with a TripleSafe Sump Pump. This system assures protection from everyday problems with an ordinary pump. It can handle a heavy flow of water, thanks to a secondary pump included inside that will help eliminate the water if the first pump is unable to keep up with the amount of water that is entering it. It also features a removable airtight lid which reduces noise, prevents objects from falling in, and keeps moisture, insects, and odor from coming out of the sump. This basement will now remain dry and restore peace of mind for years to come!
