@@DanBurandt thanks for your comment, we chose this sock due to the very fine Sandy Loam soil that is here. All of the exterior drain tile has filter fabric over top as well- Also, where we live is the top of the Niagara Escarpment, which is mostly bedrock and stone, about 200 feet from me is a very steep drop off, we don’t have much issue with water up here. Even with all the rain we had we did not get much in the foundation and it’s open. Hopefully it holds up!
I got smacked in Wisconsin for redoing my sump and putting it at grade to my basement slab. Found out it was against local code! It was supposed to be like two or so inches above the slab floor.
@@MarkJankowski-jw4yl this is a sealed system! There is event that runs from the lid to your sewer stack. Since the sump is directly below my living area, I wanted to make sure that there were no smells. Open top basins can smell if not sealed.
