Modern building specification often require that earth points are located within the building itself, which means that rod type earth electrodes must pass through the building’s foundations or floor slab.

In such applications, where the building’s clamp proof membrane is pierced, it is necessary to prevent the upward seepage of water through use of a suitable sealing mechanism around each earth rod.

Furse market - leading earth rod seals have offered the most effective solution to this problem for years. Now, we introduce a new earth rod seal which delivers all the benefits of previous designs whist offering the simplest, most cost effective installation to date.

The new Furse earth rod seal utilize our removable compression seal technology, and is specially designed to ensure a watertight seal between Furse earth rods and commonly used damp proof membranes, without the need for adhesive, sealant or mastic.

Furse lightweight inspection pits fit easily on the seal assembly making connections to earthing conductors readily accessible, and through selection of a suitable length of seal tube, an effective seal through both shallow and deep concrete slabs can be achieved. 

Earth rod seal - high performance , low maintenance

Complete assembly of a Furse earth rod seal around an earth rod is easily achieved using a number of core components, including an earth rod seal assembly and accessory spanners, earth rod seal pack, protective seal tube and lightweight inspection pit. Key features include:
