ECP Waterproofing Products: Surface Drainage

Protect Against Water Damage With ECP’s Inline Catch Basin

There are certain times of the year in which many parts of the country experience excess precipitation. As a result, draining water away from your property (also known as stormwater management) becomes all the more important. The safety of the home or business’s foundation is at risk when there is extra moisture in the soil. Therefore, surface drainage can prevent foundation problems and foundation failure. Let’s take a look at ECP’s inline catch basin, one of ECP’s line of waterproofing products.

How the Inline Catch Basin Works

Catch basins are installed around downspouts, planter areas, and landscape sections to gather water as it drains. A catch basin has a grate over the top and a drainage pipe that directs water away from the designated area where it is installed. Debris is caught in the grate and is kept from the drainage pipe. As a result, this keeps the stormwater system from becoming overwhelmed with debris. In addition, with less debris, you have less maintenance and increased longevity of the drainage system.

• Catch basin is available in 12” X 12” or 9” X 9”
• 6” round catch basin
• Universal adapter fittings accept 3” or 4” pipe
• Grates designed to prevent drainpipe clogging
• Up to 4 discharge lines

Are There Additional Benefits?

When you have a landscape around your home or business that poorly drains, then you add the risk of damage to the foundation of your property. With inline catch basins installed, you decrease that risk and protect your basement and foundation. Additionally, you have the bonus or giving a boost to the value of your home. Catch basins also protect the trees and plants that are part of your landscaping. They reduce or eliminate stagnant rainwater and excessive moisture.
