Vapor barrier shields the living space Low permeability vapor
barrier in conjunction with the sealed GrateDrain system protects the
basement against moisture. Moisture can cause poor air quality, mold,
mildew, fungus, odors, and damage to moisture sensitive equipment. Grate
Products recommends that a wall vapor barrier be installed on all GrateDrain
systems.
TuffShield- Tuffshield is a 6mil cross laminated vapor barrier that is Fire
Retardant. It is the most economical vapor barrier and perfect if customers
are going to install finished basement walls. Protects against moisture,
mold, mildew, humidity, and potential wall leaks.
HD TuffShield- HD TuffShield is a 14mil, Fire Retardant wall vapor barrier. Recommended
as a durable wall covering. It is perfect for basement walls where a customer
may not finish right away, but would like the protection against moisture,
mold, mildew, humidity, and potential wall leaks.
ThermalShield -
Thermal Shield is a foil faced wall vapor barrier that
has double layers of bubbles and true white poly wall vapor barrier on
the back. It is the wall vapor barrier of choice for adding additional
insulation reflecting indoor heat back into the basement space. Save energy
and protect against moisture, mold, mildew, humidity, and potential wall
leaks.

GrateDrain
The GrateDrain has large dual chambers that directs ground
water from beneath the basement floor and the wall/footing
joint to the sump liner. The isolation between the GrateDrain
dual chambers prevent cross contamination of iron bacteria.
The GrateDrain is a perimeter drain and is designed for closed
sub-floors. We recommend that a wall vapor barrier and Flexi-
Flange be used with every installation of the Grate Drain.

GrateSump
Does not promote undermining of the foundation
GrateSump resists iron and clogging
Dehumidifier drain plug
Virtually air tight cover
Typical sump liners are deeper and can remove water from under the foundation
that is vital for the stability of the soils supporting the footing. GrateSumps
allow more water into them from under the basement slab while not affecting
the zone of influence under the foundation.

The PHCC Pro Series AC pumps are rated for continuous duty, which means they are built to run
continuously 365 days a year, 24 hours a day. They're strong and dependable.
No AC sump pump will work when the power is out. For added protection and
peace of mind, install a battery backup sump pump system, as well as an
primary AC sump pump. The PHCC Pro Series backup sump pumps have unique
monitoring system that sound an alarm when maintenance is needed, or when
a problem arises. The PHCC Pro Series backup sump pumps monitor all these
functions and remind the homeowner when attention is needed. Easy to follow
instructions are found on the front panel of the controllers to make the
proper adjustments.
