Abstract
A fluid leak retention and drainage kit includes a fluid retention body. The fluid retention body includes an internal fluid retention volume. The internal fluid retention volume is formed by a plurality of retention body walls each comprising a first wall end and a second wall end, a sloped base comprising a drainage opening, a lip disposed on the second wall end, and a hose barb extending from the drainage opening. The sloped base is disposed at the first wall end and defines a drainage slope configured to direct fluid to the drainage opening. The lip is configured to attach the fluid retention body to a fluid retention body support surface. The kit includes a hose attachable to the hose barb. The hose is configured to output fluid to a different location.
Claims17
A fluid leak retention and drainage kit, comprising:
- (a) a fluid retention body comprising an internal fluid retention volume, the internal fluid retention volume being formed by:
- (i) a plurality of retention body walls each comprising a first wall end and a second wall end, the plurality of retention body walls including a first wall having a first length and a second wall having a second length different than the first length;
- (ii) a sloped base comprising a drainage opening, the sloped base disposed at the first wall end of each of the plurality of retention body walls, and wherein the sloped base defines a drainage slope that is configured to direct fluid toward the drainage opening, the sloped base being defined by the change in height from the first wall first end to the second wall first end;
- (iii) a lip disposed on the second wall end of each of the plurality of retention body walls, the lip configured to attach the fluid retention body to a fluid retention body support surface such that the lip is positioned above the fluid retention body support surface;
- and
- (iv) a hose barb extending from the drainage opening in a direction away from the sloped base;
- (b) a hose attachable to the hose barb, the hose comprising a first hose end and a second hose end, wherein the first hose end is configured to fluidly couple to the hose barb and the second hose end is configured to output fluid at a location away from the internal fluid retention volume, and
- (c) a leaked fluid quantity measurement device configured to detect the (c) presence of fluid at the location away from the internal fluid retention volume,
- wherein the fluid retention body is configured to be disposed at least partially within an area defined by the fluid retention body support surface.
