Flooded Basement Photos
Mar/24/08 08:19 AM
As per my post on Friday, I’ve decided to make an update post on the flooded basement incident. In the above photos you can see the water line along the walls and across the face of the heat and air unit. In one of the photographs you can that it would have been at least hip deep for me and the last photo is the entry way to the basement that afforded the thousands of gallons that infiltrated the basement. Along with the inch or so of silt deposited on the floor, you can see that one of the steel support piers has already begun to rust.
This whole incident has become a touchy subject around the house. Kristin refuses to look at the photos and is taking the out of sight out of mind approach.
At this point we are debating on whether or not to claim it on our insurance and replace the entire unit, or just pay to have it repaired.
