What are the drainage systems for?
Each modern building should be equipped with a drainage system, on the reliability of which to a large extent depends on the life of not only the roofing, but the entire building entirely. External drainage systems have successfully performed the task of collecting wastewater for many decades. Modern drains are whole constructions made up of gutters, funnels and connecting elements.
A person is protected from heavy rain with an umbrella. And since moisture is harmful not only to people, but also to buildings, each modern residential multi -storey building must be protected by a correctly designed and installed germ system. As you know, water sharpens the stone, and therefore thousands of rain drops that have entered a house, not equipped with a drainage system, will slide down through the cracks to penetrate and cause damage to the foundation, walls, subjecting them to gradual destruction from damp.
Installation of the drainage system
In the modern market, consumers are available an extensive assortment of durable external drains of various configurations. The most demand is the gutters made of galvanized metal – they passed the test of time and proved themselves as unpretentious and durable structures.
For climatic conditions of the Russian Federation, galvanized drainage systems are the most optimal. The main task, which is performed by drainage systems in Rostov, Voronezh, St. Petersburg and other cities, is the organization of atmospheric rainfall from the surface of the roofs of houses and their diverts to the storm sewer or in particularly prepared places.
Excessive humidity is harmful to both wooden buildings and concrete foundations of brick houses, so the drain is necessary for both log houses and monolithic houses of brick and concrete. In addition, gutters (regardless of what material they are made of) are part of the architecture of the building.
The design of the drainage system contains horizontal gutters, drain pipes, drain funnels and mounting brackets. The surface of the gutters and pipes made of galvanized steel is quite smooth, therefore, the leaves accidentally hit them, the poplar fluff and other natural garbage is washed out during heavy rain with a strong stream of water.
