Flooded crawlspace fixed using the Hydrolink crawlspace drainage system

Whether your crawlspace floor is dirt or concrete, the Hydrolink drainage pipe system that DryZone uses is perfect for fixing a ground water problem. The only way to truly guarantee a waterproofed crawlspace is with the appropriate amount of drainage pipes and sump pumps. A sump pump is great to have in a crawlspace, but how will water from other parts of the crawlspace reach the pump without some sort of piping system? A great and easy way to relate to this concept is by thinking of the sump pump as a city, you could get to the city without roads but it would be a long and rough trip. If you add smooth roads, Hydrolink drainage pipes, then the trip is faster and much easier. One great advantage that Hydrolink has over other pipe systems is that it is made up of smooth pipes rather than ridges like those of a black corrugated pipe. Those ridges trap dirt and debris very easily and can clog incredibly quickly. Hydrolink is far less likely to clog and even has inspection ports built into the system. These ports allow you to see if the system clogs and flush it out with a hose if needed.

Brand new Turtl crawlspace entry system

Are you tired of stepping in a puddle of water as soon as you crawl into your crawlspace? Some of that water is probably coming in through your old metal door. A Turtl is made of heavy-duty plastic and will never warp, rust, or rot. It has a solid bottom to keep ground water from coming up into it. A Turtl is also airtight which means the nasty humid air is going to stay out of the crawl space as well.

CleanSpace in a wet and dirty crawlspace

The old 6 mil liner that gets installed after the house is built only serves to keep your knees a little cleaner. The edges are loose and that lets the moist air escape into the crawlspace. When that happens, the humidity goes up and leads to mold outbreaks. With the CleanSpace system in place, the wetness is sealed in the dirt and the air, wood, and insulation can dry out.

Improving a crawlspace entrance with a high quality Turtl

The Turtl is a great way to improve on a leaky crawlspace entry. The old metal door rusts and warps, the entry well will fill up with water and mud. Thankfully the Turtl is air tight and water tight. It will keep all the rain and ground water out of the crawlspace.

Drying out the crawl space

A dry crawl space is one of the best ways to get your home healthier and more efficient. The wood support beams will dry out over time and become more rigid. The air conditioner and heating units will work more efficiently since it is easier to heat and cool dry air. One of the biggest differences people notice is the smells getting better. Mold and mildew are some pretty offensive odors, and the CleanSpace system helps to eliminate them for good.
