FAQs

What does the A15 load rating mean?

An A15 load rating signifies that the drain is suitable for pedestrian and cycle traffic, commonly found in residential gardens and patio areas.

Can I cut the 1m channels to size?

Yes, the material allows for cutting to accommodate specific doorway widths, though you should use appropriate tools for a clean finish.

Is this drain suitable for my driveway?

No, this product is designed for A15 residential use and should not be used in driveways where cars or heavy vehicles will drive over it.

How do I connect the sections?

The channels are designed to be joined end-to-end; ensure they are aligned correctly for a continuous, water-tight run.

How often should I clean the channel?

It is recommended to inspect and clear the drain of leaves and debris at least once every few months, or more frequently during autumn.

Troubleshooting

Water is not flowing into the drain

Check that the channel is installed at the lowest point of the local surface area and ensure the internal channel is clear of debris.

Sections appear uneven at joints

Re-level the trench base to ensure that each one-metre length sits perfectly flush with the adjacent section.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sleek and modern silver finish
  • Easy to cut and join for custom lengths
  • Lightweight yet durable construction
  • Ideal for bi-fold and patio door applications

Cons

  • Not rated for heavy vehicle or car traffic
  • Limited to residential load classes
  • Requires proper excavation for optimal drainage flow

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires creating a trench that provides a stable base for the channel. Ensure the base is level and that the drain is set slightly lower than the surrounding finished surface to encourage water flow. When joining sections, ensure connectors are snapped or aligned properly to prevent leaks at the joints. For maintenance, regularly clear the channel of debris such as leaves, dirt, and grit to prevent blockages. Periodic flushing with a garden hose will ensure that the drainage capacity remains optimal throughout the wetter months.
