Sump Pump Discharge Line Updated So Doesn't Freeze in Winter in Wausau, WI
An IceGuard Discharge Line System was added to this sump pump discharge line to help carry any water safely from the home and also to ensure the line doesn't freeze and back up in the winter.
Sump pump discharge lines are fed outside the home, meaning it's possible they could freeze during the cold winter months. A backed-up discharge line means your sump pump won't work properly in the event of water in your basement, which will make the flooding much worse. Our solution to this problem is the IceGuard discharge line system.
The IceGuard fits over the top of your discharge line to provide water with a secondary escape route. When the main line is working correctly, water simply flows out as usual. However, when the discharge line is frozen, the IceGuard allows water to escape through slotted openings in the drain pipe. This ensures that any water your sump pump is removing from your basement is safely cleared away outside your home, preventing any backed-up or frozen lines. The IceGuard is compatible with all our sump pump systems.

Egress Window Installed in Wausau, WI
Before Installation
The basement in Wausau, WI, had a standard small window that was insufficient for use as an emergency exit. This window allowed minimal natural light into the basement bedroom, creating a somewhat dark and confined atmosphere. The lack of a proper egress window not only compromised safety but also limited the usability and appeal of the space.
After Installation
Following the installation by Sure-Dry, the basement bedroom now features a new egress window that meets all safety regulations for an emergency exit. The new window is significantly larger, allowing much more natural light to flood the room, creating a brighter and more inviting environment. The addition of the egress window enhances the overall safety of the basement, providing a reliable and accessible escape route in case of emergencies. This upgrade also increases the functionality and value of the basement, making it a more attractive living space.
