Flood Control and Old Clay Tile Sewer Systems Chicagoland
Home
owners in Chicago land are having more frequent sewer backs up and broken lines. A problem
with the Chicago land sewer system is that sanitary sewer and
storm lines share the same main line in the middle of the street. This is a
problem because when flash flood hit they cannot keep up with the large volume
of water at once so many home owners end up with sewage in there basement. A
solution to this problem would be to convert your home to an overhead sewer system
or install flood
control system. Another problem home owners often face is broken sewer line
that cause sewage backs ups. When dealing with such problems it is always best
to video inspect the sewer line and locate the bad spot. After spot is located
you could either make spot repair or line sewer that saves a lot of time and
money, Trench-less sewer repair are the new trend because
homeowners are running into chronic sewer problems that are solved
with trenchless sewer repair with new seamless epoxy resin pipe.

How to Prevent Flooding in Chicago-land Area
How To Prevent Flooding in your Basement!
 |
| Flooded Basement in Chicago! |
Most homeowners in the Chicago and Chicago-land suburbs experience flooded basements during major storms aka (Flash Floods). These types of floods are expensive to clean up and can cause lots of damage to your home. To prevent such flooding issues, Reliance Plumbing installs flood control systems or converts gravity sewers to overhead sewer systems. The advantages of an overhead sewer system is that, it dose not rely on electricity to prevent flooding. A big advantage of this system is that during major storms lots of homes lose power that cause there sump pumps not to eject water out of the home. Not all homes can be converted to overhead sewer system due to shallow sewer mains that is a requirement for installation. Another great option to prevent flooding would be a Dual Check Valve Flood Control system. This system prevents the city water from "backing up" into your home when the city mains are overwhelmed with water. Flash floods are a sudden rain fall in small amount of time; that cause the city sewer lines problems because it can not keep up with the volume of water that cause it to "back up" into the lowest points which is usually an unprotected basement drain.

Chicago Basement Flooding Initiative
"The Department of Water Management is eager to work with neighborhood groups and aldermen offices to reduce the risk of basement flooding when the big storms hit. Chicago (among other communities) is experiencing intense downpours, in part as a result of Climate Change.There are some things the City can do (like installing Rain Blockers), and other things only property owners can do. The key is to organize our efforts so that as many neighbors as possible are participating. If only a few people act, it will not be enough.Contact Tom LaPorte at 312-742-1029 to learn more about how you and your neighbors can work with us to reduce the risk of flooding.These are a new kind of storm, and they will take new strategies and partnerships to combat. Nothing can guarantee you will not flood again, but together we can take meaningful action that reduces the risk" "http://www.cityofchicago.org/city/en/depts/water.html"
