ABSTRACT:
A product useful for preventing water seepage onto a floor in a structure having a foundation, a footing, a floor and a drain below the floor, including a barrier having a cross-sectional shape which forms conduit portions and contact portions, the barrier being suitable for placement against the foundation and the footing prior to installation of the floor, the barrier having an upper diverter suitable for placement against the foundation, the barrier having a lower diverter suitable for placement against the footing, the upper diverter being connected to the lower diverter at approximately right angles to one another, the lower diverter extending a distance away from the foundation farther than the footing extends from the foundation, the cross-sectional shape providing conduit portions which allow water to travel through the upper diverter conduit portions to and through the lower diverter conduit portions to a point under the floor and away from the footing to the drain under the floor and the cross-sectional shape providing contact portions which allow substantial structural contact between the floor and the foundation, and the floor and the footing.
