Products Used: Wellcraft® Well Model #2062 with Flat Polycarbonate Cover
Project Description:
This egress system was installed in an 10" thick, cast-in-place, concrete foundation. We had to work
in a very tight space between a deck and several trees. We used our mini excavator to create the hole
for the well. We saw cut the rough opening in the concrete and discovered a 4" sanitary drain pipe
running directly through the opening. We went to plan "B" which was to lower the egress window a
several inches and install an additional window above the egress window. This created a space through
which the sanitary drain pipe could be enclosed. The drain for the well was tied into the exisiting foundation
drain of the house. We installed both windows, then the well and cover. Finally, we backfilled with stone,
and finished with a layer of mulch.
