Why Do Elevator Pits Leak?
Elevator pits are typically located at the lowest point of a building, making them highly susceptible to groundwater intrusion. Over time, hydrostatic pressure and poor drainage lead to moisture buildup and even standing water. This can cause:
-
Rusted mechanical components
-
Damaged pit walls and floors
-
Mold and mildew growth
-
Risk of code violations or service shutdowns
