Why is Dimple Board So Effective for Wall Drainage?

The long-term integrity and health of a structure depend on a successful wall drainage system, which includes three components:

• A dimple board waterproofing (drainage boards, drainage panels) that gives moisture a path to the footings.

• A footing drain to collect water, and direct it to a sump pump.

• A pump to remove water to an external stormwater collection system. Alternatively, a sloping lot may provide enough gravity from the footing drain to the sunlight.
