I did the same thing when I owned my 2nd flour apartment. Instead of your basement it was going into my down stairs neighbours bathroom. .

Ouch!! These kind of mistakes sure hurt! Good luck getting the papers and photos dried out. I'd like to offer some help - if needed I have a heated garage you can sleep in - or if the situation really gets bad I do funerals!

Oh oh! Bummer!
Hmmmm.......... Soaking the family photos and ruining the furnace or return pipe goo in the face: I warn you people; reefers do not make ideal husbands.

Bah,

My cats have flooded my basement more than I have.

Cats are worse than reefers when they like to chew water lines.

I installed a lever type valve in line on a python hose so I wouldn't have to set up the temp of the water every time I needed to stop the water flow. The hose burst right at the faucet. Full pressure, floor to ceiling....twice. I feel your pain man.
