Groundwater Flood Prevention Case Study in Denmark

This case study details the flooding issues faced by homeowners in Denmark, particularly focusing on John Sørensen's experience in January 2024. Following heavy rainfall and snowmelt during the autumn and winter of 2023, groundwater levels rose significantly, leading to widespread flooding and damage in basements across the country. John Sørensen's home suffered extensive mold damage, rendering it uninhabitable. To address the problem, a new drainage system was installed in his basement, which included a UNILIFT KP pump designed for effective water management. The case study outlines the installation process and the importance of preventive measures to mitigate future flooding risks. It also discusses the financial implications of the flooding, including insurance coverage and the costs associated with the drainage system. Overall, the case illustrates the effectiveness of the UNILIFT KP in maintaining a dry and safe home environment amidst increasing climate-related flooding challenges.
