CertainTeed is Building Responsibly with Green Building Products











Features and Benefits

Form-a-Drain 
the simple but elegant 3-in-1 solution that forms footings,drains foundations and vents radon. A well-built home begins with the foundation. That’s why CertainTeed developed Form-A-Drain, a patented, permanently installed system that handles three vital foundation functions. Form-A-Drain: forms the footing, drains the foundation-, provides a means for radon reduction.

• Ideally located drainage system, parallel to footing and below foundation wall. This relieves hydrostatic pressure on walls and slabs, reducing the risk of cracking.

 

• Drainage system cannot sag or crimp, reducing the risk of blockage or uneven drainage.

 

• Less elapsed time between footing pour and wall construction provides increased productivity.
