Description
PVC water stoppers are widely used in construction to prevent water infiltration and damage in various applications:
1. Concrete joints: PVC water stoppers are inserted into expansion joints and contraction joints to prevent water from seeping into the joint and causing damage.
2. Pipe penetrations: PVC water stoppers are used to seal around pipes and other penetrations through walls, floors, and ceilings to prevent water leakage.
3. Foundation and basement waterproofing: PVC water stoppers are used to seal any gaps or openings in foundation walls, floors, and around drainage pipes to prevent water entry.
4. Bathroom and kitchen waterproofing: PVC water stoppers are used around shower and bathtub drains, sinks, and toilets to prevent water from seeping behind walls and under floors.
5. Swimming pool construction: PVC water stoppers are used to seal joints and penetrations in swimming pool construction to prevent water leakage.
6. Waterproofing of retaining walls and bridges: PVC water stoppers are used to prevent water infiltration and damage in these structures.
By using PVC water stoppers in these applications, builders and contractors can help ensure a watertight seal, reduce the risk of water damage, and meet building code requirements.
