Interior Basement Drainage Systems
.An Interior Basement Drainage System is installed under the basement floor, commonly along the perimeter, where the floor and wall meet. Because the work is done on the inside of the home it is cost effective and generally only takes two to three days to install.
By installing an Interior Basement Drainage System you eliminate the problems associated with basement water seepage by collecting the water at the most common point of entry, below the slab. This allows the water to drain away to the sump pump before the water level rises to the seam between the wall and floor of your basement preventing the center of the basement floor from leaking through cracksby minimizing the water at the perimeter of the floor before it can travel elsewhere.
All Interior Basement Drainage Systems should include a wall vapor barrier and be closed systems so as to protect and enhance your basement environment. After all 30% to 40% of the air you breathe on the first floor of your home comes from your basement.
An Interior Basement Drainage System will work year round collecting the water below the slab providing a “path” for the water to travel to the sump pump. This simple basement moisture control system keeps your floor or crawl space dry and livable while preventing future water damage.
