@oilbaron apologies for the late reply- our notifications were turned off for this video. You are correct you can experience fines to migrate through the gravel over time. As a secondary barrier a geo fabric barrier could also be laid. It will depend on the native soil that is in the trench wall.
We are using the 100mm unslotted from the 4 gutter outlets to our four 10,000 litre squat poly tanks until we get around finishing the tank stands and poly outlets.
@specilized29er86 apologies for the late reply- Perfect temporary solution. Once you have finished we are happy to take the pipe back to manufacture into more Draincoil or other Vinidex Products. We have a number of drop off points around the country, please call us for your nearest branch to drop off.
Hi @alexandrashay - apologies for the late reply. We never had notifications on. We tried to keep the video as generic as we could without being too long. With the ends, some times they continue into an outlet or are finished off with an end cap.
@oilBaron100 - The gravel assists with any potential ground water coming from the bottom of the trench. It also helps to level the bottom of the trench and for the gravel to sit into the corrugations giving the pipe side support which is needed once any load is applied.
Also, why don’t you surround the gravel with a geo-fabric?
What will prevent the soil penetration into the gravel?

how the ends look like? did you just closed them with the plugs? I wish we can see all the ends to better understand it.
It's just a bad video with a potential. Why don't they show how the other end of the pipe is secured?!

Why can’t the drain coil sit at the bottom of the trench, under the gravel?
Just get crusher dust on the bottom
And then wack dirt on top aslong there no clay
