SOME QUALITIES
of the
HYDROLITHIC SYSTEM
of
WATERPROOFING
Protection of Machinery
In large office buildings, every square foot of which has a fixed rent value, the machinery must, for ecoromic reasons, be placed below ground and must be protected from floods and dampness.

Property Values
We have created many a valuable basement in cities where the high water level made utilization of below-ground space impossible Basements waterproofed with
THE HYDROLITHIC SYSTEM
Electrolytic Corrosion
may be sunk to any required depth.
Recent experiments show that, without doubt, reinforced concrete, unless it is waterproofed absolutely, is about twenty times as good a conductor of electricity as when it is kept in a perfectly dry condition. All reinforcements in concrete columns and all steel columns in outside concrete walls invite disintegration through electrolysis, unless entirely enveloped in an absolutely waterproof medium. With this point in view,
THE HYDROLITHIC SYSTEM Sanitation
is the only positive insurance against electrolytic corrosion.
Waterproofing which keeps out flood and even dampness under all conditions, makes disease-breeding germs an impossibility.
THE HYDROLITHIC SYSTEM
guarantees perfect dryness and consequent germ immunity.
