Basement Drain Main™
Basic Profile | Floor Cracks | Squares and Splice Rails
Place mouse on image to the left for animation. The Basement Drain Main™ System give superior protection against basement water seepage in one easy installation. No trenching - No crushed rock - No pipes - No wraps needed. Basement Drain Main's™ innovational design incorporates the sub-floor system with wall drainage. Water enters the system through the holes tapped into the base of the walls and flows through the Drain Main™ System to the sump pump. The Basement Drain Main™ is constructed entirely of PVC material and adapts flawlessly to all contours on the job site. All the benefits add up to BIG savings, LESS materials, FEWER man hours, and REDUCED call backs.
The Basement Drain Main™ System is easy to install. Just tap weep holes into the bottom row of blocks along the footing (NO holes needed to be tapped in poured wall foundations) and the system does all the work for you and leaves your customer with a clean, dry basement for years to come.

Basic Profile
Place mouse on image to the right for animation. Basement Drain Main™ uses two co-extruded rubber seals along the bottom of the system to reduce dumping exterior wall water under the basement floor. Instead of dumping hydrostatic pressure under the basement floor, the Drain Main™ traps the hydrostatic pressure with the two rubber seals and uses the hydrostatic pressure to drive water to the sump pump.
3 rigid gussets create fluid chambers. As water levels rise into these chambers a water level effect takes over and drives high water towards low water (sump pump) as water always is self-leveling. The 3 rigid gussets filter debris from floating up into this natural drive mechanism.
Floor Cracks
Place mouse on image to the left for animation. Floor cracks seep water primarily because of hydrostatic pressure that feeds in from the end cuts of floor cracks that meet exterior walls. In many cases a simple installation of a sump pump is all it takes to eliminate minor problems. The Basement Drain Main's™ leak guard is a secondary channel to collect back flow from under the footings. The leak guard channel also offers protection against water seepage up through the crack formed by pouring new concrete up against existing concrete.
