| Form-A-Drain is the product of choice for builders ![]() The study, conducted by Readex Research, asked building professionals to rank products based on familiarity, frequency of use and overall quality. Form-A-Drain was selected as the top choice across all categories. Form-A-Drain is a patented three-in-one concrete footing form system, foundation drainage system and sub-slab perimeter radon venting system. Manufactured from 100 percent pre- and post-consumer polyvinyl chloride (PVC), it remains in place after the concrete is poured. Because it remains in place, there is no need for the builder to return to the jobsite, creating efficiency for both the builder and the homeowner. The overall pre- and post-consumer recycled content of Form-A-Drain system components is 92 percent. After installation, Form-A-Drain collects groundwater through multiple side vents and transports it to a sump pit or a drainage pipe going to the outside. Harmful radon gas is also collected and safely evacuated through a separate vent pipe. write your comments about the article :: © 2011 Construction News :: home page |
