Installing Drainage Under The Patio!
What happens here
Once the individual pipe sections are laid out and graded, connect the various branches of the perforated pipe system to the main solid discharge pipe. The video shows using Y-connectors and 90-degree elbows to merge multiple collection lines into a single, continuous flow path. These connections should also be primed and cemented to ensure a secure and watertight fit. Ensure that the main solid pipe, which will carry water away from the foundation, maintains its downward slope towards the final discharge point.
Goal: Connect all collection pipes to the main discharge line for unified water flow.
