New Filtered Drain System
(Used in Baseball Fields Over 30 Years)
A new and unique filtered drain system has been proven effective in solving your basement water problems. Greg Resch developed a dimple board system that collects water from a wall and channels it across the footing to his unique filter channel system. The filter channel system has proven itself over 30 years that it filters out mud and sediment from the soil and won’t plug. It will flow more water than a 3–in. drain tile and the labor savings are unbelievable because, in most cases, it requires very little digging. The system works well in most soils, the only exception being fine sand. If you are installing it in fine sand, or you’re concerned about your soil plugging the system, just apply a minimum of 2 in. of BB shot rock (1/8 to ¼ in.) or coarse fill sand around the mesh drain to prevent it from plugging. It’s a lot less work than the amount of rock necessary to install a 3 in. drain tile system. In most situations, it will solve the problem of floor cracks leaking. If you have just a wall problem, you can install our water channel system that collects the water from the walls and the footing area and channels it away. This system sits on the footing, requires less concrete removal and installs quick and easy.
