FAQs

Does this pipe include a connector?

Yes, the product is supplied complete with a coupling for straightforward assembly.

Is this pipe suitable for heavy traffic areas?

While durable, ensure it is buried at a sufficient depth and covered with protective backfill if it is to be installed under paths or driveways.

What standards does this pipe meet?

This pipe is fully compliant with BS4962 standards for plastic land drainage pipes.

Can I use this pipe for pressure plumbing?

No, this is specifically designed for sub-surface gravity drainage and is not suitable for pressurized fluid transport.

How do I prevent the perforations from clogging?

It is highly recommended to wrap the pipe in a geotextile membrane or surround it with clean pea shingle to act as a filter.

Troubleshooting

Water is not draining away as expected

Check the gradient of the trench to ensure it is sloping downwards toward the outlet, and inspect the outlet for blockages.

Pipe appears clogged with silt or sediment

If the pipe was installed without a geotextile membrane, it may require excavation and cleaning, or the installation of a proper filter layer.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight and easy to install in deep trenches
  • Meets BS4962 safety and performance standards
  • Continuous 50m length minimizes the need for excess connectors
  • Durable construction suitable for sub-surface ground pressure

Cons

  • Requires proper filter fabric to prevent holes from clogging
  • Not suitable for high-pressure water systems
  • Requires manual labor for trench digging and backfilling

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your drainage system, begin by excavating a trench at a slight downward gradient to ensure gravity-fed water flow. Line the bottom of the trench with a layer of gravel and lay the perforated pipe along the center.

Compatibility Note: While the pipe includes a coupling, ensure your existing drainage outlets match the 60mm outer diameter for a snug fit.

Care Instructions:

  • Always wrap the pipe in a geotextile drainage membrane if installing in sandy or silty soil to prevent fine particles from entering the perforations.
  • Avoid crushing the pipe with heavy machinery during the backfilling process.
  • Ensure the outlet point remains clear of debris to maintain an unobstructed flow.
