RIW Aqua Channel

RIW Aqua Channel is a purpose-designed internal peripheral PVC drainage conduit for use in below-ground waterproofing systems. Its distinctive pentagonal profile allows it to sit neatly at the wall and floor junction — the most vulnerable point for water ingress in a basement — where it collects any water entering through the structure and diverts it to a suitable drainage outlet.

Water enters the channel through the pre-drilled 19mm holes, spaced at 70mm centres along its length, and is then directed either to a natural gravity-fed outlet or to a mechanical sump and pump system depending on the site conditions. This makes it highly adaptable across a wide range of below-ground drainage scenarios.
