When waterproofing a basement or cellar with a cavity drain membrane system, you need to install a basement drainage system to deal with any water ingress and keep the environment dry. This drainage system is made up of two key components - a sump and pump system and basement drainage channels. The drainage channels transport any water entering the structure to the sump chamber. Drainage channels are installed around the perimeter of a basement or cellar. They feature a number of holes that allow any water from the cavity drain membrane to enter the channel.

Tanking is the term given to the installation of a waterproofing system within a basement or cellar. Basement and cellar tanking systems are applied directly onto the walls and floors of a below ground structure to prevent the passage of ground water through the structure. In essence by covering all surfaces, you are left with a "tank" or shell. Usually basement and cellar tanking is maintenance free, as long as the installation is carried out properly. When most people think of tanking solutions for basements, they think of a cementitious waterproofing product.
