In this video, I show whether the measures taken to drain my cellar can withstand flooding. After heavy rain, a lot of water seeps through the walls and collects in my pump shaft. But what effect does this have on the drained walls?
I have been draining my damp cellar using the injection method for a year now. To support this, I have built a pump sump in which a submersible pump reliably pumps out the water.
Despite the massive amounts of rainfall of over 100 liters per square meter, the basement remains better protected, while other basements are under water. In this video, I explore the question of whether draining the walls already has an effect on the incoming water and how effective the measures are.
See for yourself what the water level in my cellar looks like after the heavy rain and whether the system with pump shaft and drainage holds!
