  • We integrate our SuperDry subfloor drainage system in crawl space waterproofing using either stone or our proprietary SuperCrete cement. Either way works great and keeps your crawl space very dry. Pick which method to install depends on how much traffic is in your crawl space.
    Stone is great for low traffic and is more affordable. Our Supercrete installation is excellent for high traffic and lots of storage. Both keep your crawl space dry, reduce mold, and create viable usable space.

    Great videos. Why use the drain board with the gravel solution? I understand using it in combination with the weep holes in the case of backfilling with supercrete, but with gravel wouldn't it just drain through under the gravel itself? Thanks

      During steady, long-lasting rainfall, water seepage can come through where the wall meets the floor (cove joint). The drain board and vapor barrier help to keep moisture and seepage from touching the concrete surface below your floor. It is extra insurance in keeping a basement dry.

    Awesome videos, you've taught me a lot through your videos
    How do you determine when a dehumidifier is necessary in conjunction with the SuperDry system vs. just the SuperDry system alone?

    • @AmericanDryBasementSystems

      95% of our installations don't require a dehumidifier, but in some cases, usually in crawl spaces, a dehumidifier may be required because of condensation leaking from pipes, lack of overhead floor insulation, HVAC not insulated, condensation from AC unit, etc. If homeowners can resolve these problems they benefit from a healthier home and save on high electric bills produced by energy consuming dehumidifiers.

    • @AmericanDryBasementSystems
      @AmericanDryBasementSystems  3 роки тому +1

      Only cinder block because the cores can fill with water. ua-cam.com/video/d3PY7e61imA/v-deo.html

    What kind of drainage board do you use. Where would I find it for purchase?

    • @AmericanDryBasementSystems
      @AmericanDryBasementSystems  4 роки тому

      That drain board can only be purchased by businesses in bulk from the manufacturer. No retail version available to the public.

    I asked tons of professionals if i could out cement under our crawl space i was told no. ..

    • @AmericanDryBasementSystems
      @AmericanDryBasementSystems  4 місяці тому +1

      General cement will never work. We use our proprietary Supercrete. It is 100% waterproof. Regular concrete becomes damp and can crack easily in comparison.

      Would using Sakrete High-Strength 60-lb High Strength Concrete Mix be good as well? I was looking for the one suggested at lowes and didnt see any.

    Goodluck on a 12" crawlspace like mine. You'll be on your back and get absolutely zero done.
