I definitely don't intend to keep this thread going for long on my part since I neither have the interest nor the time. But, in all fairness, I want to add some clarification.
As far as I know, the indoor perimeter water diversion system called B-Dry, which an acquaintance of mine installed, has worked for them. I looked at the installation, it looked neat, was done well, and they are pleased to have a dry basement even though they were in a bad spot. They do have moist air coming into the basement through grates, which are part of the installation. That is the point made by Sani-Tred, if you want to keep humidity out as much as possible then paint/polymer coatings will help. But so will probably a dehumidifier.
To me it is mostly an issue of cost and the ease with which I can verify Sani-Tred's claims by using a partial application. If Sani-Tred product does not work for me and if my town's actions are not forthcoming or are useless, then I will have to bite the bullet and have no other option but to install a system like B-Dry, which, similar to Sani-Tred, offers a lifetime warrantee. |
