Construction and materials
The Trex RainEscape product line offers innovative solutions for managing water runoff from elevated decks, transforming otherwise unusable space into valuable outdoor living areas. This system is designed to keep the area beneath your deck dry, allowing for the installation of lighting, ceiling fans, and furnishings, effectively creating a second living space.
Trex RainEscape utilizes a unique combination of components to create a high-capacity, leak-proof drainage system. The core of the system consists of durable, flexible gutters that are installed between the joists of the deck. These gutters are engineered to channel water away from the deck structure and direct it to downspouts, preventing water from dripping onto the space below.
The materials used in the Trex RainEscape system are chosen for their longevity and resistance to the elements. The gutters are typically made from a heavy-duty, proprietary material designed to withstand extreme temperatures, UV exposure, and moisture without degrading. This ensures the system’s performance and durability over time.
In addition to the gutters, the system includes a network of durable fabric or membrane components that are installed across the underside of the deck joists. This fabric works in conjunction with the gutters, creating a sealed channel that directs water flow. The fabric is strong and resistant to stretching, sagging, and tearing, even when subjected to the weight of water. It is designed to seamlessly connect with the gutters, preventing any leaks.
The installation process involves attaching the fabric to the joists, creating a series of pockets that lead to the integrated gutters. The gutters then connect to standard downspouts, allowing for efficient water management. The system is engineered to handle a significant volume of water, making it effective even during heavy rainfall. Trex RainEscape is designed to be compatible with a wide range of deck constructions and materials, offering a versatile solution for deck drainage.
