Downspout Drain Lines - Using Perforated Pipe -

Downspout drainage is very important when it comes to protecting your homes foundation from water. However, there are things that you don't want to do when it comes to the installation of downspout drainage lines. Improper installation of the drainage system can just lead to more problems than it solves. The use of perforated pipe for downspout drainage is a common mistake, that should be avoided.

Drain lines from the downspout should always be solid pvc pipe, either corrugated or smooth wall pvc pipe. Installing perforated pipe onto to gutters will percolate water back around the foundation wall, which we don't want. Perforated pipe for downspout drain lines should only be used when creating a leech field to drain the water from the lines. This application is most often used when dealing with poor slope on properties, or locations for which, a gravity drainage system will not allow for water push out.
