"Hi, I’m Joel with Waterproof.com and today I’m going to show you how to install the SquidGee Dry System. The SquidGee Dry System is an ideal remedy for a basement leaking water through the joint where the floor and walls meet. The do-it-yourself system collects the water and quietly drains it to the sump pump or floor drain. Never worry about a wet leaky basement again! The SquidGee Dry System will last for decades. The only skill needed is the ability to follow directions. Begin by cleaning the floor to remove all dirt and dust. Using the SealOnce Adhesive apply a tall, thick bead of adhesive to the bottom of the main section. Turn the main section back over and set it in place. Press gently in place for 30 seconds. Next, apply the finishing seal followed by slicking down the bead of adhesive to create a watertight seal. Seal the butt-joint connectors to create a continuous channel. Install and bond in place the pre-molded inside and outside corners. Finish by draining the SquidGee Dry System to your sump pump or floor drain. Enjoy your dry basement for years to come. If you have any questions please visit our website Waterproof.com or call 1-800-828-2947."
