Why did you not connect the wood furnace to your ductwork? I am looking at options like this and getting that heat all through the house is one of the reasons I am considering it. Do you have another method for circulating heat?

@@kingdomcome82 We considered connecting to the ductwork. We have two entirely different ducted systems, so we would have needed to pick on. We also finished a room in the basement at the same time and this is the only source of heat dedicated to that space, but could have split off to heat both. It actually worked fairly well without connecting to the ductwork. I was planning on adding insulation to the basement walls, but we actually moved to another home nearby in the last few months. We bought an outdoor wood boiler for the new house and I plan to share videos on the new system before long as well.

The shorter answer is that it worked pretty well without ducting it in and I moved on to other projects, but I likely would have connected it eventually if we were still there. We do still own the home and use it as a short term rental, so we haven't been using the wood furnace.

This guy has no idea what he is talking about. If the interior drain tile is installed properly, you drill weep holes at the bottom of the wall, below the floor, to drain the concrete block walls. The block walls are hollow. As long as there are weep holes drilled at the bottom, they will not fill up and create anymore issues with the appearance or integrity of the walls. The only way to waterproof a concrete block wall is to install the drain tile on the inside or outside of the home. Inside is much easier so you don't have to dig up everything around the exterior of your home.

I had a water problem in my basement. Never knew of these systems. I decided to just jack hammer all along the wall beside the footer and lay a French drain . Did it all by myself and it was a ton of work. Jack hammer and haul away the concrete and then dig a trench and remove dirt. Lay pipe down, fill with gravel. Then do the sump pump and re concrete it all back. First time doing it as well. It worked though.

This is one situation where oversizing would be very helpful. It might have more capacity than needed, but it would help you go longer between times when you need to add more wood, which would be incredibly helpful. We are able to keep up with the set point down to around 25 F, but that requires us to feed it every couple hours when it is that cold. If we had a smaller home (or better insulated), then we would just stoke it less which would make the wood last longer. My general understanding is that the more air you give it, the higher the heat output, but you are sacrificing efficiency and need to add wood more often. When we aren't at the edge of its heating capacity, I try to stoke it to get a hit fire/coals, then close down the oxygen supply to just the normal convection draft. I think this provides the highest efficiency.

Hi, good question. The landscape recycling center in our town allows unlimited bulk wood pickup for free. It can still take a lot of work to process it and split it up, but at least the wood is free. You can also reach out to some tree service companies and they will often drop off bulk wood for free as well (since they often pay to dispose of it).

So my house was built in 1970ish. I bought the house 2 years ago and it had a dewatering system already there. During inspection the basement was pretty dry. For some reason during inspection they made a mistake and placed a new system in due to mis communication. My basement also was carpeted so when Installing the new system they pulled the carpet up. Well since I’ve been here my basement has not gotten wet. I’m not sure how long the first system was there but I imagine for some time. If im in the basement when it rain I have a drain and I can see the water run in the drain. So far so good. But I do worry how long it will last.

My basement floor is not level all the way around the the edges. At some points, it slope in both directions. How do you ensure that the water is going toward the sump pump?
@beargoodfruit1726
@beargoodfruit1726 Жыл бұрын
Having a steady slope to the sump pump is ideal. The second best option would be to just ensure the system is sealed all the way. You will have some standing water at the lowest point until it evaporates, but it could be a lot better than your current situation (depending on your current situation). The system we installed only sees water infiltration during relatively extreme rain events. The vast majority of the water is routed to the sump pump and a small amount sits in the system until it evaporates. We have a dehumidifier to control the humidity. The dehumidifier does very well with this situation, but it wouldn't be able to keep up if all that water was spread across the basement floor, etc. I hope that helps. Good luck!

Why did you redrill the holes? Couldn't you just install the system to deal with whatever trickle you were getting? That looks like a long run to the sump. What kind of slope could you have on the thing? You sure you don't have water in the drain channel somewhere? It looks like a good possible solution for me. My runs are short. Wet periods short and rare as well.

No, the drilled holes just allow any water in the block to drain more quickly into the system. The water will make its way in even if they don't line up. Other people have asked about the need to drill the holes in the first place. I think this just helps to relieve the build up and drain at the bottom. We were not getting a ton of water and only during relatively extreme events, but I could imagine a situation where you would have seepage higher up because there is water standing in the cavities. I would rather have it run out easily at the bottom.

The house didn't have gutters for at least five years before I bought it. It could have been much longer. All of the water from the roof was dumped on right at the foundation along that wall. This problem has been addressed now and there is proper drainage in place. My belief is that the settling was largely caused by the drainage issue and should be totally or nearly totally resolved now. The screw jacks are still there, but the walls are now resting on the original foundation wall, with blocks and mortar added to fill the created gap.

I spoke to the current owner a little while ago. He said he had one minor leak in the 7ish years since I installed the system. He touched up the epoxy in that area and have been good ever since. He has been very happy with it. I don't think he finished the space. It has primarily been used to guide the water to the sump pit and minimize moisture in the basement, etc. I think you could finish the space, but I would want to use a glue-down plank vinyl flooring product and have reasonable access to the drainage system (through extra tall trim or otherwise). It should be doable.

If/when I do a deeper dive on the project I will probably remove and replace the bottom three or four rows of tile and I could replace the water barrier at that time.
