Thank goodness I found your channel last night! I bought 40 ft of expandable piping which is covered in fabric with the intention of burying it in my backyard for downspout drainage. I took it all back this morning after watching your videos and will order the 3 inch kit you sell. Thank you French Drain Man!
@johndaniel4532 new kit comes with fabric to wrap bottomless popup emitter. One installed, one to go. Was very difficult digging in hard dry clay soil in this heat.
awesome, awesome video. I am an intern, still in college and learning about the commercial drainage system because my company will help design the underground drain system. Your videos definitely brought to light what I would never see or notice in real life. It's amazing to see a whole world devoted to drainage.
Thanks for your perspective. It is comforting since I have laid some 4" corrugated and then later am seeing/hearing poo-pooing this type of drain tile. But, my feelings are that if water is moving there's very little if any sediment, so good to hear confirmation of that. I have good slope. ..really good at the beginning of the run, and will be sure to maintain a decent slope on the end of it (not completed yet). I have leaf guards too, so there just isn't going to be much if any debris either.
Amen! Not everyone realizes the trials and tribulations of drainage systems in the cold North. The other part of your "bellies" is that they trap water - which freezes - and completely blocks the drain. I've had it happen under my driveway, where snow doesn't accumulate and doesn't insulate the ground.
You are comparing to Sch 40 pipe. Most municipalities use SDR pipe for underground - because it can handle the movements in the soil - frost cycles. Its not as rigid as Sch 40 but that flexibility is what you want. After looking at different specs I went with SDR26 pipe instead of SDR35. I also use open hub connectors (gap into underground SDR26) at the downspouts as clean outs rather than a tight connection. Been working very good.
Thanks for this video. I just bought 4 inch 100 ft of the corrugated solid. I was thinking maybe I should have spent more money for smooth wall stuff but now I know to really pay attention to slope and I should not have any problems. I am putting a upside down t at the end of the run. I have dug a 2 foot wide and 2.5 ft deep hole filled with small stones. The t has a grate on top which i can remove and clean things out if need be. Just had these gutters put on and want to get all the water away from my house. Thanks for the vid. Ray
The ONLY negative comment that I'll offer is that I had an entire roll of this corrugated pipe in my barn, spooled and wrapped. It sat there for almost 10 years, inside plastic wrap. When I went to use it a few years ago, it immediately started cracking at the corrugated seams. Maybe the moisture from being plastic wrapped, but it's supposed to be exposed to everyday weather exposures, including moisture. The entire roll had to be scrapped, and it had never been used even a single day in utility purposes. Even 45 degree bends resulted in cracking and separation. Maybe I bought a bad batch, but - again - it was 10 years old, and still wrapped as new.
I have this type of corrugated pipe. It has a belly as you say near the daylight end in the front yard. In hot humid weather, my yard stinks like a swamp. I agree. It's not the pipe but the installer.
Man this is the best info glad I found it was going to do it the wrong way with the white stuff he showed will take it back and go with his type of flex THANKS SO MUCH 👍👍👍👊
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience. I have a couple of questions: 1. Which would be better pipe for Clay soil. As you know it is expensive soil, so it can put a lot of pressure at times and keeps on shifting. 2. You talked about maintaining the slope so water does not stand in the pipe. However when you use a pop-up, or other outlet mechanism it will be higher than the pipe level, so water will stand in the pipe. How to avoid that?
When you have a French drain and the downspout, where should you put the downspout in the trenches? The drain tile is on the bottom of the trench and the downspout tube is on top of the drain tile? Or maybe the solid tube is along side of the drain tile?? What is the wrong and right thing to do?
Love your videos, good info to know. Out contractor did a rather half arsed job with our underground drainage and so this winter we found out how bad it was when ice started coming out the end connected to the down spout... With this burried, is is best to surround it with some form of rock / gravel vs just straight dirt on top to give it some added support?
Question I have a lot of water coming from neighbors yard and I need to move it across the yard, do recommend having an open drainage with intake box or no box. How do you prevent debris from entering the box? With clay sand soil what do you use number 4 or 8
Remember that you have to dump the water in a place on your own property and the water needs to seep into the grownd slowly. Most of the drain installs has the water go to someone else's property.
Hi, I am Maria Ford a 67 year old disable female Veteran. I moved here from Indiana, to retired. The cold and snow was too much for me. I have to do everything myself. So, can you tell me where to get the double drainage pipe I will need for the French drain. When D. R. Horton built these homes in the HOA where I live in Hiram, Georgia, they did not put any drainage system in this community. Now, we have to do it ourselves. All 197 homes. Mainly us that don't have the money. I had to have 8 trees and 50 bushes dug up on this little land, less than a quarter acre. Plus, I am trying my best to dig up all the roots that are under my house and concrete And all through the yard. I am out everyday, in the sun. And people go by and blow their horns. Plus, I am being fined because, I can't get it done fast enough. It is going to take me at least 3 years to get it done plus, grade the yard whatever that is And put in a French drain. So, can you PLEASE tell me how to do these things. On top of me replacing the window and door frames And painting the house to which I am afraid of being up high. But, I have to do it myself. Please, just tell me how to do it because, have no ideaI what I am trying to do. I have not enjoyed this home at all. Not one cook out. I will follow your instructions Thank you
Thanks for the video, it is very useful, what is the biggest diameter size of the singgle corugated wall? We plan to install the pipe in the parking lot 2 meters deep under the ground, do we need extra protection tq
Your display pipe is laying across a gravel driveway so which is best if you had to bury like it shows and have the home owners drive across regularly? I'm sure you know the drill added a 4-6" thick gravel driveway and has created a dam.
How flexible is a double wall corrugated pipe? I have pretty straight runs but I have a pretty steep drop off.i live in arizona and I don’t have a big leaf problem,is a single wall gonna work .
@rip Single wall is fine. 4 inch Dualwall gives enough we stopped stocking 22 degree elbows only 45 degree so that should help. Thank you for commenting!
HI there, look i went to your store but you dont have the black pipe that you mention here?? also you dont have a definition where to use the black , or the blue or the yellow??? and why??? thanks
I'm pretty sure (95%) that the yellow is the new version of the single wall black he shows here. Those are solid pipes only to move downspout water, no french drain. The blue you see now, which has the inlets, is the same same purpose as the yellow you see in the background here with the inlets. The blue is the new design, a little tougher I think, but the purpose is for french drains and it takes water in through the walls.
Looking to do a 6" drain pipes from roof water with either sch 40 or duel wall. This will be under concrete driveway for 20' then under dirt for 10 more ft. There will be 4 drain lines from different gutters downspouts on this side of the roof. This won't be below the frost line. Located in WI. What do you recomend?
@@FRENCHDRAINMAN What do you like to use when the hdpe comes through the concrete for attaching to the down spout? I tore my old pipe cap that was on the old building that was the green pipe and sure enough there was a crack in the 90. 12 years old. We have no trees on this side of the building.
Thanks for your video. In the north must we always go below the frost line? My local HD only has an 18" trencher. My frost line is 30" in MD. Can you T in a French drain to a single wall downspout drain or should they be separate lines?
Do you recommend a catch basin at the gutter downspout and then connect the single wall corrugated to the catch basin? I’ve heard catch basins are needed otherwise it’s just a matter of time before a clog will form.
Hi there. Great Tutorial. I have a question. I’m in Oregon. I am going to run about a 150foot continual slope system from my downspouts. I think I would like to use the Dual wall Corrugated pipe as the first 50 feet are almost flat then it will pick up pretty fast after one 90 degrees bend as that long run is going to go behind a newly installed interlocking block retaining wall ending up at the street. Can I use the 3inch Dual Wall Corrugated pipe for the whole thing except for the initial downspout along with the house until it flattens out? My local Home Depot and Lowe’s don’t seem to carry this Dual wall pipe. Should I use 3 inch pipe if it exists or should I use the 4 inch? I hope that I’m not imposing too much by asking you this but we are about 2000 miles away. Thank you for your videos though. Very Tight and to the point . I went to your website to try to email but it wouldn't accept my info. Rick Oregon (on the coast)
Asking from Canada (lots of freeze and thaw up here). What goes at the end of the pipe underground? How much space do I need to leave at the tip of the pipe in the ground?
This is almost opposite of what you said in your Clinton Township video of sump pump drainage. You say to use Cresline which I found out is around $300 for a 20 foot length unfortunately. I'm thinking about doing a sump pump drainage system myself, but I do not know which pipe to use, and I don't think I can afford the Cresline.
Tammy I think the difference is in the grade of the slope and not wanting the water in the yard. That job had a super flat yard, therefore requiring smooth wall pipe to better move the water to the ditch.
I see you have perforated pipe in the video, is that what you recommend? or is that perforated pipe just sitting there because you didn't move it to film the video
what leaf guard would you recommend? i have lots of oaks in the backyard and a huge pesky maple in the front that drops leaves in the fall and seeds in the spring😡
I see that somebody has already ask what slope? Well? I am trying to go 28 ft. away from my house. Starting at house how deep should I be at my end point before I put the pop up? Thank you!
I live in Northeast Ohio and just bought a house that has an underground downspout drainage system that was installed in the mid to late 90's and looks to be the system you are against. Who should I contact about removing and replacing it? Everyone I contact won't do anything. Just looking for advice and direction. Thanks.
No comment on weeping tile for drainage? Corgated pipe that's perforated and covered in a sock. Anyone have experience with this? Contractor used that on my house 3 years ago, no problems so far...
That video is six years old, that's like a lifetime in UA-cam years. We've made 30 new parts that are branded with our French Drain Man brand and vowed to change the industry for the better.
Is it normal for the drain pipe to hold water with the catch basin in place at the end of the run? because I ran 80 foot of pipe having three-quarter to full bubble of fall all the way to the same basin that’s in the video. I noticed the pipe will actually hold water but once I take the catch basin off all the water is released ...is that normal?
Yes . Anytime you don’t have an open ended pipe , then it will require some back pressure to lift the water out of the pipe to overflow from the basin . Therefore always water in the pipe .
dig a trench, line it with heavy duty plastic sheeting, place into trench aggregate rock, cover with geo fabric, bury, never any problem at a fraction of the cost.
@@thiadova you can lay in a slotted pipe if you can return water to a piped storm drainage system. If you simply want to discharge or remove water and let this water run over land in another area, then use a curtain drain
