Elevator Pit Waterproofing
CGI Texas specializes in sealing active leaks in elevator pits. DIfGel HD 2.0 is non-expanding and is stable in constantly wet conditions. These qualities make elevator pits a perfect fit for our injection system. Small holes are drilled to find water pockets and intrusion spots, then our patented injection pistol is used to inject our solution behind the wall or slab, creating a watertight membrane on the positive pressure side.

Process and Results
First the pit is drained and cleaned of any debris.
After the pit has been dried we will then look for any signs of obvious water intrusion.
1" holes are drilled around the perimeter where water intrusion in occurring.
Difgel HD 2.0 is injected through the pit to the positive pressure side where it gels up the intruding water forming a watertight membrane.
Below you can see just how far our low viscous, acrylic resin can travel, since we inject under pressure.
After injections and inspections, we leave the customer with a dry pit.
Below is a pump jack assembly sealed with Difgel HD 2.0 Acrylic Resin. Hydraulic cement
was placed over the resin for a clean fnished look and to protect the resin.
