Better than Draft Pits
Finally – A Better Alternative to the Dreaded “Drafting/Money Pit”



Thinking of sinking valuable money into an expensive concrete-lined pit in the ground?
Limitations of a Traditional Draft Pit:
- Out of sight – but can’t park on it and can’t move it
- Limited pump testing – water heats up quickly, then takes time to cool down
- Cleaning and maintenance on a pool you can’t get into without an expensive confined space entry permit
- Always in the same spot – zero flexibility where you practice / test… you must go to it
- Requires compliance with local, state, and federal Underground Storage Tank Regulations
