Hello dear ones!
Before I call the executing company again, I would like to ask you for advice.
I have a question about a sewage shaft. So I mean these rings made of concrete.
At the beginning of the year, we had an electric non-return valve installed in front of our new building.
It is located underground, in two concrete rings. This was installed professionally.
After a few weeks, these two rings started to become wet inside at the point where they lay on top of each other.
Supposedly this is normal and nothing could happen.
Then it rained for several days in a row and so much water came through that we carried it out again by the bucketful.
We had the manhole cover of the shaft open during the last few days of good weather so that the remaining puddle could dry up.
Then it rained normally one night and the rings were wet again.
Is it really normal and harmless if the rings become wet after rain?
Should the rings possibly be sealed inside or outside with something?
It can’t be that the valve stands in water after every heavy rain shower!?
Was something done wrong during the installation?
Thanks in advance
