First off, excellent video-well done. You put a lot of time into it; I applaud you. Your end result is a great video. I did want to tell all the subscribers who see this video and read these comments to bed this pipe in small stone. Soil that has been excavated and put back will never pack tightly. Stone is 100% compacted to ensure no bellies will form in the drain line.

Any videos like this for the French Drain Man perforated/corrugated pipe? I'm thinking I'll use that for a french drain with gutter tie ins this summer. I'm up north so I think that's my best option. Overview on which FDM pipes work per applications would be great. Like where would you recommend high octane 8-slot vs. knife cut vs. heavy duty? If dealing with longer runs, could installation of multiple cleanouts help deal with a potential belly if one forms?

We will be doing a video on the FDM pipe in the future. Downspout drains should be ran on solid pipe and kept separate from your French drain so as to not contaminate the French drain with debris that finds its way into the gutters. High octane 8 slot is for using with French drains where as knife cut is used to leech water into the soil. Watch the FDM videos and he explains where to use knife cut. Clean outs are always a good idea on longer runs.

what kind of tile tape are you using? Brand and size?

I'm using 4" triple wall with holes in the bottom. Do I still need to glue and tape it? It's for ground water and some gutters.I'm trying to control all the runoff from my neighbor. It's going to be almost 170 feet and will have the non-woven cloth and drain rock around it. It will end in a dry-well that has 4 55 gallon plastic drums with slits in the sides and surrounded by drain rock. I figured that would give me 220 gallons of storage until it gets absorbed.

Looking for a perimeter foundation drain that can be buried up to 8' deep. Thanks for all your videos. It seems like 1. Single wall perforated is no good. 2. Triple wall wouldn't be good. and 3. Dual wall would be best. That being said, I haven't seen dual wall perforated pipe from any of the stores. Am I missing something? Any advice on sourcing? I've looked at FDM but freight charges alone are $500 so that's off the table.
@andrescastro65387 ай бұрын
so much good info , but quick question: from you videos is clear that gutter waters stay separate from your actual French pipe , so the STAR of the French drain pipe you use a end cap correct ?
@StormWaterDrainageSolutions7 ай бұрын
That is correct. We just cap off the start of the French drain run.

I have a ABS pipe that is embedded in cement already and want to connect ADS to it. What adhesive would you recommend to connect ABS to ADS?

I would advise against installing triple wall under concrete.

Would you wrap this in geofabric and backfill with 57 stone for a french drain? And no issues with a 100ft wrong if you were incredibly meticulous about making sure there are no bellies?
@StormWaterDrainageSolutions4 ай бұрын
Good questions, I personally wouldn’t use this for French drains, but if you did use it then yes wrap both pipe and stone. 57 stone is good but inch to inch and a half is better if it’s not going to be anywhere vehicles will drive over it. 100ft is a pretty good run so I would be extremely meticulous. Might be better off looking for a good thick single walled corrugated pipe.
@rorycompton81384 ай бұрын
Thanks for the reply. All I can find locally is your regular ADS single wall corrugated pipe, and FDM freight charges make his pipe cost prohibitive.
