Subsurface Geocomposite Drainage System
|
| We use only the best: J-Drain®! |
|
 A J-DRain prefabricated drainage system (or PDS) consists of two parts:
1) Geosynthetic Filtered Fabric: Holds back the soil and allows water to enter the core.
Geotextile fabrics have outstanding water flow levels, providing water to enter the drainage core quickly. The fabric is attached to the core preventing the backfill from entering the core channels and is resistant to clogging.
2) Molded Plastic Core: 3-dimensional dimpled or honeycombed polymeric core.
The core is made of high strength plastic and provides tremendous in-plane water flow levels. It is made to withstand the tough backfill stages and will provide better drainage than the old pipe and stone method.
