Illustrated above - Single Pump System

Ideal solution for Architects and custom home builders.
Water (represented by blue arrows) seeps into the buried drainage grid and empties, by way of underground silt drainage socks, into the gravel filled pit containing the pump and sensor. Any excessive water the pit cannot absorb, fills the pit and triggers the sensor to turn on the pump, taking it away from the perimeter footing of the building preventing excessive amounts of water to collect. Once the water is brought to the surface, by via the dispersion outlet, it can be delt with in various ways including being rerouted into the city drainage system.

Advantages

The newly patented system creates a healthier and safer environment by eliminating the interior basement pit, virtually eliminating vapors, humidity, noises, as well as bacteria and pests, associated with open sump pits. This environmental control reduces moisture and therefore the chance for molds and mildews to grow.

The innovative Pitless Drain system greatly reduces the needs for routine servicing and there is virtually no inside floor space required, only the wall mounted controller. The system also eliminates all potential shock sources.

This unique Trusty Warns solution involves the exterior pit; a gravel packed hole, encasing a sensor, pump and drainage system. This Pitless Grid Drain System greatly reduces the chance of water ever entering the basement thereby resolving the need for an inside sump pit and pump system. There simply is no other choice in the market today that can claim this solution.
