What ‘Tanking System’ is, and if its important:
‘Tanking’ is a specific type of waterproofing which functions by attempting to block water out of a structure, by including a barrier product on or within that structure.  If water is totally blocked out, then the internal basement/cellar environment is protected and remains dry. The term is commonly used to describe various types of waterproofing systems generally, but in its true sense it is specific to ‘barrier protection’, (or ‘Type A (barrier) protection’ within British Standard 8102).

Tanking System, is it really important?

There is no question that any wet room must be properly tanked. While it is important that all walk in shower spaces need to be waterproofed, nowhere is this more crucial than in a wet room, where the entire shower floor should be sealed or ‘tanked’ in order to guard against leaks. If you’re looking into the possibility of tanking and wet room installation, you’ve come to the right place.
