Wall Shield Basement Wall Panels Provide Added Defense Against Basement Moisture & Seepage
Wall Shield is an economical moisture defense upgrade that is designed to enhance your Basement Waterproofing System. This clean, low-maintenance material is installed on the interior basement wall to protect against intrusive water and moisture.
The Wall Shield panels are installed directly over the basement wall.
Best of all, Wall Shield provides a clean, semi-finished look that is durable, washable and does not require painting (but it can be painted), making it a great choice for homeowners that already have, or want to create, a finished basement.
Wall Shield – How it Works
- Wall Shield utilizes a 4-mil liner between the panel and basement wall. It is connected using joiners and sealed at the top to help ensure moisture vapor cannot escape.
- Water passing through the wall is directed into the Water Management System, and discharged away from the foundation.
- Wall Shield can be installed in basement homes with both major slab types (monolithic slabs & floating slabs).
- Wall Shield is attached to the wall with special drilled-in fasteners.
- Wall Shield helps reduce mold, mildew, and allergens by encapsulating wall moisture.
- Designed to work with Water Lock™ Plus or most waterproofing systems.
- Panels are washable, effective and easy to maintain.
