The durability of a building is largely determined by how well the protection against unfavorable climatic factors is organized. First of all, it is necessary to take care of reducing the influence of external moisture, for which drainage systems of various designs and materials are used.
The importance of reliable drainage systems
A rational engineering solution will help to effectively prevent the accumulation of external moisture and the associated destruction of the roof or walls. Directional drainage of liquid eliminates the appearance of rust on the facing materials and the basement of the building, as well as the risk of mold and rotting. By the way, the constant accumulation of liquid leads to the formation of microcracks in the walls and ceilings. Through them, moisture will gradually begin to penetrate to the foundation, which carries the threat of subsidence and premature destruction of the entire object.
The right gutter system
In cottage construction, there are no strict rules regarding the choice of the atmospheric moisture drainage system. Manufacturers will offer a variety of solutions, each of which will be appropriate for a particular circumstance. RoofUA guarantees the quality of the offered drainage systems, the choice of which may depend on such factors:
- materials of manufacture, their characteristics and parameters of durability;
- nuances of installation and organization of joints of structural elements of systems;
- the procedure for maintenance or cleaning of the finished structure;
- appearance;
- price issue.
The most popular solutions for atmospheric moisture removal
Plastic drainage systems are widely used. The excellent practicality of the polyvinyl chloride known to many is complemented by special additives to increase the strength of the finished structure. As a result, the home owner gets a relatively inexpensive engineering solution that will last for many years without a hint of destruction due to moisture, solar activity, wind or temperature extremes. Buyers note other advantages of such systems:
- appearance;
- preventing congestion or grooves;
- convenient and quick installation;
- the ability to use in any climatic conditions;
- an excellent combination of practicality, quality and price.
