New construction foundation waterproofing has never been more important. A recent NAHB study found that building material costs have jumped 26.1% since 2020, and shortage concerns have increased the need for long-term interior waterproofing solutions. Learn more about the residential foundation waterproofing solutions offered by Hydraway and why contractors prefer our systems over traditional options.
Components of Hydraway’s Residential Foundation Waterproofing Solutions
Our residential foundation waterproofing products include the following:
Hydraway 2000
The Hydraway 2000 is a flat strip drain solution built to last longer and maintain industry-leading performance. The needle-punched fabric allows water to flow into a thermally bonded plastic molded structure and resists clogging by preventing silt and soil particles from entering the system.
Hydraway 300
Our Hydraway 300 combines high-compression strength and a flexible polyethylene core to produce a higher inflow rate than traditional systems. We manufacture the Hydraway 300 with a built-in protection board that eliminates the need for additional products, reducing overall installation costs.
Hydraway’s Innovative New Construction Foundation Waterproofing Solutions
Industry-Leading Foundation Waterproofing Membrane
Water entering a home is more than just an annoyance; it’s harmful to the overall infrastructure and slowly destroys the foundation if ignored. As a contractor, you know preventing water from entering the home is the best defense against long-term structural damage. Hydraway’s foundation waterproofing system removes the threat of water entering a home, providing peace of mind for your clients.
Installing an Exterior Foundation Waterproofing Membrane
Hydraway makes the installation process easy. The contractor first removes a section of the floor and creates small weep holes if needed on a block wall to allow trapped water to escape. The Hydraway 2000 is installed next to the footing and serves as a drain channel for incoming water. The installer then places the Hydraway 300 as a bridge between the foundation wall to the Hydraway 2000 channel to fully capture water regardless of how it tries to enter your home. Finally, the Hydrapump is installed to pump outside water away from the foundation. Proper installation keeps a basement floor safe from flooding and secures the long-term health of a home’s foundation.
Basement Foundation Waterproofing System
Rising water levels in a basement require immediate action. The residential sump pump from Hydraway is the fast-acting solution your clients need. Our system directs water that enters a home into the sump pit and directs the water away from the foundation. Our innovative sump pump system works efficiently, keeps basements dry, and is composed of the following parts:
- Sump pit: A small hole where the sump pump sits
- Discharge pipe: The pipe that directs water away from the foundation
- Check valve: A one-way valve that prevents water from flowing backward
- Pressure sensor: A sensor that controls sump pump power
- Centrifugal pump: The instrument that moves water out of the sump pit
- Impeller: A fan that pushes water through the discharge pipe using centrifugal force
- Freeze relief fitting
- Attractive pipe collar to finish the discharge pipe
A proper basement waterproofing system is a top priority for new home construction. Our sump pump drainage system eliminates foundation damage, which leads to long-term cost savings for your clients.
Benefits of Hydraway’s Residential Foundation Waterproofing Solutions
Our new construction foundation waterproofing systems are a popular choice for contractors because they provide the following benefits:
Efficiency
Our residential foundation waterproofing systems offer a 0% fail rate and outperform traditional French drain systems.
High Inflow Rates
Other drainage systems have low inflow rates that increase the risk of clogging. Hydraway’s systems reduce the risk of water problems by providing an industry-leading 70% inflow rate.
Easy Installation
Our waterproofing solutions feature low installation costs because the material has zero coil memory. Traditional corrugated pipes curl upwards and need to be flattened before installation. Our pipes remain flat throughout delivery and installation, streamlining the install process.
