Membranes, drainage and accessories for remedial interior isolation of damp basement walls and direction of surface water.
Water entering through walls is contained behind membranes and directed to drainage at base of wall.
Requires sump and pump or equivalent passive water disposal system. (Sumps and pumps specified separately).
Renders:
Suitable for overcoating with 1:6 sand:cement render, incorporating hydrated lime or Wykamol techno SBR Latex additive. Use Grade M medium sharp sand. Do not use soft sand or building sand.
Apply two coats. First coat 7–10 mm, left to harden for 7–10 days. Overall thickness 15–30 mm.
Gypsum plasters:
Suitable for overcoating with most gypsum backing plasters or renovating plasters, such as Tilcon Whitewall or Thistle Browning. Not suitable for use with Hardwall or Tuff coat.
Apply two coats. First coat 7–10 mm, left to harden for 7–10 days. Overall thickness 15–40 mm.
Lining

Drainage
Aqua Channel:
PVC drainage profile for perimeter drainage of basements. Designed for drainage of water contained behind Wykamol Cavity Drain Membranes and subsequent diversion to sump.
Predrilled with 19 mm holes at 70 mm centres for water ingress.
Suitable for use behind DPM to reduce water pressure.
Can be fitted with jetting eyes for periodic flushing.
Aqua Drain:
60 mm diameter drainage pipe for perimeter drainage of basements. Designed for drainage of water contained behind Wykamol Cavity Drain Membranes and subsequent diversion to sump.
Fully perforated for water ingress. Fitted with continuous geotextile sheath to prevent ingress of particles.
Lay below floating floor or screed and DPM. Lay in floorslab channel (w x h), 125 x 75 mm, filled with small grade aggregate.
Suitable for use behind DPM to reduce water pressure.
