Basement Systems Wins Innovation Award

Posted by cynthia in Basement Systems Inc., Larry Janesky | 0 comments

SEYMOUR, CT – Basement Systems is proud to announce that it has been awarded two Connecticut Quality Improvement Award Innovation Prizes for its Risk-Free Affiliate Lead Tracking System and the SaniDry XP Basement Dehumidifier.

The 23-year-old Connecticut Quality Improvement Award is America’s first state-level quality award that uses the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality for Performance Excellence criteria.

The Connecticut Quality Improvement Award’s prestigious Innovation Prize is presented to organizations in Connecticut that have used innovation to create a new opportunity or solve an existing problem, and can demonstrate numerically the benefit to its business and customers.

Basement Systems, Inc. received one gold and one silver CQIA Innovation Prize this year.

“We are extremely proud and honored to be recognized as innovators in today’s volatile business climate by an organization like CQIA. The Malcolm Baldrige criteria have been influential in our company’s growth and success!” said Daniel Fitzgerald, director of marketing for Basement Systems.

Basement Systems’ Gold award-winning Risk-Free Affiliate Lead Tracking System is an automated tracking system for their “Pay Per Inquiry” advertising program in which BSI only pays for the leads it receives. It was developed to be a mutually beneficial advertising system for Basement Systems and its affiliates in a time when more companies have been decreasing the amount of money set aside for advertising. Real time reporting and 100% automation were imperative to the success of the program.

The silver award-winning innovative technology of the SaniDry XP Basement Air System lowers the relative humidity in a home to below 50 percent, which is below the level required for dust mites to thrive. The SaniDry XP has a 110-pints-per-day capacity, a built-in defrost system designed to operate down to 40F, and a direct gravity drain hose to a floor drain, WaterGuard, or sump pump. It can also be drained directly outside if not other drain is present. The XP features a dual-stage filtration system and filters particles from the air as small as two microns (smaller than typical indoor air allergens such as mold spores or dust mite droppings), and an optional carbon filter is available to rid your space of those musty smells.

Basement Systems, Inc. is an international network of basement waterproofing, crawl space repair and basement finishing contractors. The international headquarters, based in Seymour, Connecticut, also provides sales and service throughout Connecticut and Westchester County, NY. Larry Janesky’s Basement Systems, Inc. has been helping homeowners increase their usable living space for over 20 years across the United States, Canada, Ireland and the United Kingdom.

After three years of living in basement-related forums & web sites on a daily basis, I’ve come to a few conclusions:

Homeowners are taking this advice & returning to the same forums when the advice fails
Repeat Steps 1 & 2

As part of a network that’s been reputable in the basement business since 1987 nationally, we’d like to send some good horse sense into the ether.
