@@JimSperanza using this video, you would install it just inside the form at the ground level with gravel or below? I have never used monoform and haven't seen anyone install a drain system for it yet. I really appreciate it and thank you for the great video.
@msdarwin04 you wouldnt want to place it inside the outer form because that's where your concrete will form your footer. You would place it inside the inner form and then backfill the entire center with stone.
How do you Attatch the foam to the stake for your final micro adjustments for exact level? I’m probably could have worded that better, but with a traditional wood form and stake one would shoot it with a laser level and nail it you the exact elevation…
The foam is leveled with the gravel/stone underneath the form . The stakes help hold the form for lateral movement along with backfill before pouring concrete.
What kind of drain system is or gets installed with this kind of foundation, if any?
@msdarwin04 you can run perforated pipe around the interior perimeter of the foundation to a croc or gravity to daylight.

Where is this house located ? Just wondering what form size is required for what climate zone.
Rochester NY
Good stuff. Can you provide a link? Also what is the frost line in Rochester? I’ll be in Northern Maine. Line is 72”

That is an interesting product. Are you a dealer for them and/or can you provide a ballpark price of what it costs?
