Thank you again Chuck. You're awesome. Tom

Chuck- thanks to you I completed my downspout burials ( may they Rest In Peace) last weekend. I have two that connect to a 50 foot run to the front yard. Had a heavy rain yesterday. I could not believe the amount of water they move ! My neighbor and I did his too so the lake between our houses is no more. Thanks for all the tips. Saved a couple of grand and got to play in the dirt!

Thanks to this channel I was able to correct a drainage issue in our new home. The previous owner had the drain pipe about 8 feet short of the sidewalk and the popup was under the grass about 4"! I found it dug my channel, went to Home Depot and got my 10' drain pipe and installed. Boom done. Big rain worked great! Thanks Apple Drains.

Chuck you have excellent videos. Keep up the great work.

[thewildwilsonshow]

Good golly Chuck this is the absolute best video I've ever seen in my whole life!! Really, as I just said this to my dear Joan as I was sitting here watching drainage videos and trying to get my drainage issues resolved due to other people not making things easy for me and my lack of knowledge/experience - ha! I now have more knowledge and I was at least somewhat on the right... wait for it... flow of how to get it done for success. Your video brought me that peace and success. It's Friday and almost 1 p.m. so I'm gonna have a cold one. Thank you and God bless! 🇨🇱🇺🇸

LoL! "If you like drainage videos". I mean... cmon who doesn't right? But like... I do like drainage videos. I wish i didn't, but Chuck... I really do.

[HectorPerez-tbhn]

well explained !! thanks for the info !!

[larryrogers]

Hey Chuck- great video. What type of longboard are you riding now?

[JoeThePro]

We like to put rock around the pop up emitter to prevent sod or grass encroaching over and preventing discharge.

[StayPositive]

So you don’t attach the pop up with screws? Is that so we can pull it out for maintenance more easily? Thanks for your channel.

Chuck: For a downspout drain used with 4" solid corrugated drain pipe in Charlotte, NC can I go with just a 6" deep trench with just 2 inches of soil / sod over the top assuming I have the adequate slope?

[juanzingarello]

Funny. I just bought my first house (after owning two condos) and saw I have two of these. One of them being broken so I had to order a replacement. I thought this thing was a cleanout for the drain and never realized it was to emit excess drainage.

[frix]

I just had a drain installed that empties into the ditch. The contractor put the discharge or the pipe about 6" or so under the grade of the ditch. Would a pop-up emitter work in this situation? I have used them before and they work great, but I am worried that having the water in the ditch flowing over them will cause issues. The contractor will be coming back and I am going to bring this up to them. Thanks

[CGAZ]

What if the slope is more towards the house? if you run this out away from the home will it still work? Will I need to slope the run and have a taller pipe for the pop up? Part of the yard is slightly sloped to the home.

[anthonyross]

I love this but that connector that snaps in do you have a part number? I’m trying to find it here in a Canada at Home Depot or Lowe’s.

[modquad]

Hmmm, my house’s gutter drains are plumbed in 3” Sched 40 and the house is fully surrounded by concrete side walk and patio. I had to get yard around house regraded to create better water shed away from house so most of the long underground runs had to be cut about 10’ from house. I’m debating whether I should re-trence for long runs of PVC or use pop-ups, assuming they make them for 3” PVC… maybe there are adapters to allow fit to 3”??

[tanktexas]

Hey chuck does it matter if I use a solid corrugated pipe or pvc for draining standing water in my yard

[squirrelattackspidy]

What's a swail / swale? Can you do this in a sort of flat surface? Maybe dig down at a slight incline and then use the popup? Is this different than a french drain? Thanks!

[ricardohartleyii]

Does the popup need to be connected directly to the drain line?
Or can you install the 99° elbow then add a vertical extension and then connect the pop-up?
