AquaStop FreezeGuard™

What is the AquaStop FreezeGuard™?

The AquaStop FreezeGuard™ is a cutting-edge attachment that connects to your sump pump system’s exterior discharge line just outside your home. It acts as a secondary escape route for water, mitigating backflow and basement flooding and decreasing the risk of sump pump burnout. If your discharge line becomes blocked or frozen, water is redirected to the FreezeGuard™, where it is safely released.

This innovation is part of Mount Valley Foundation Systems’ broader whole-home solution, which includes advanced basement water management systems. When integrated correctly, a well-designed waterproofing system works synergistically with the AquaStop FreezeGuard™ to offer complete protection against water-related damage.

Signs You Need the FreezeGuard™ Attachment

This specialized attachment is particularly beneficial if your basement exhibits the following problems during winter months:

• Flooding or water accumulation
• Regular formation of ice around the foundation or discharge area
• Strain or noise from the sump pump
• History of frozen discharge lines
• Wet basement walls
• Musty odors
• Mold growth
• Efflorescence on basement walls or floors

Basement moisture, regardless of the entry point, is a serious issue leading to detrimental effects. It can compromise both your health and your home’s structural integrity. Upon noticing these issues in your basement, reach out to Mount Valley Foundation Systems promptly for a free inspection and repair estimate.
