Form – A Drain , Perimeter Perforated Drains And Concrete Footer Form
PVC Form-A-Drain is a new product I ran across on while researching my page on basement foundations. The
system is composed of a hollow PVC drains shaped like a rectangular tube. The drains serve as the concrete forms for the footers for the basement or crawlspace foundation and I suppose even for slab-on-grade foundations. The systems has corners to join the straight sections and outlet systems to connect to 4″ round PVC perforated or solid pipe to drain the water away from the foundation.
Foundation Perimeter Drain and Footer Concrete Form
In addition to acting as a perimeter hydrostatic water drain, it can also serve as an evacuation vent for radon gas. This is what caught my attention first and foremost. You get three functions for the labor cost of a single installation. For me that made this something to give serious consideration to.
