- Опубликовано: 10 мар 2023
- We're going to show you the easiest way to install an underground buried downspout system. You don't have to rent a sod cutter or a back hoe. You don't need any tools and you don't need a crew of men either. We're going to run a three inch pipe. So we can go right over top of the sprinkler system without having to relocate all the sprinkler lines. A three inch line is plenty. Three inch corrugated pipe is the ideal pipe for underground buried downspout systems. You want to have an inline catch Basin, a pop-up emitter and about 24 to 25 feet of three inch pipe. This is the ideal DIY kit. It's a professional grade, heavy duty DIY kit purpose built for the homeowner. Everything's already set up to connect and just snap. Easy! No tools required.

I want this kit! I’m assuming it’s a link in your about section? And if not can I get it? Thanks

@@FRENCHDRAINMANcan you just buy the downspout attachment separately?
@@FRENCHDRAINMANDoes it come with an expert to install it? I love it!!!!!
How well does this drain system work in Minnesota during the winter? Will it freeze up?
You can buy those at home depot, lowes, menards.
If you don't have a dollar bill you could perhaps use a tape measure.
But then you won't know how the size differs from a dollar bill?!?!
That is a tool....
😂
😮😮A tape measure. OMG. That’s too practical.
Fk that. I’ve got a calibrated eye
I just bought this kit for my house. Zero issues, zero headaches, zero water getting in my basement now even after a huge rain storm.
Just came back from Home Depot. After 20 minutes of them unsuccessfully trying to piece together the parts I need your kits make life so much easier.
I've been wanting something like this for a long time. Good thing I kept putting off this job on a couple of my downspouts. Now I don't have a good excuse to avoid doing it. Very cool.
I wish every house in MI has your system - thanks for sharing!
Thanks for this content. Great video! This is my next project!
Great video! Wish we would've found it before my husband did ours. Now I want to re-do it.
This is a great DIY kit with everything you need. Perfect!

@@FRENCHDRAINMAN Great video! Very straightforward. I live on a wooded lot with lots of debris from the trees. An insane amount of leaves but also helicopters from maples little sticks and buds. Catkins from the oaks are really bad in spring. Would a system like this still handle my type of lot?? Thanks in advance!
@@FRENCHDRAINMAN What would the catch basin included with this kit be used for?
I’m a contractor in Mi and I get my supplies from you guys! Love the look and simplicity of your products
Where abouts in Michigan?
Amazing and very educational video. Great work.
Amazing. Thanks 👍
Good video thanks for posting!
This is a really nice door contraption on the downspout. I had a similar contraption I bought at lowes that didn’t have a door on it and the water came out the front frequency. This door would prevent that. I like it!

Love you video, love the do it without machinery videos the most.
I have some amazing DIYer kits and products this year. We have 3 more products to release yet this year. One is another game changer. Everything is geared towards minimum or no tools required. No messy glues. In Fall there will be a big product release, the patent has 50 claims along. I put every penny back into this business. It seems I'm the only one who's truly looking out for the homeowner in this industry. We have 4 years of new products slated. It's a ambitious goal but I'm not getting any younger.
Thank you for commenting. Appreciate you.
Can't wait to see them, hopefully some rain water collection stuff
Looks good!
I purchased emitters a year ago and love the way they look. Plan on purchasing a few downspout kits soon. Extremely high quality parts!
Man, wish this would had been around last summer when I did my system. 4" pipe was a bear, but I got it all done.
Well said!
Glad it's done ✔️ 👍

A great help. I am about to get into gutters that have not been on the house for 30 years! Also more French drains to fix water "traps" I have built. Have under house water issues and too old to do it myself now. Not looking forward to this but home work is interesting.🦇

Make sure to install 3"x4" downspouts
NOOOICE!
I bought 4 of your pop up emitters. Love them. However, I suggest having spare pop up flaps on hand as they sometimes get sucked up with the mower going over them and chews them up
We set them at dirt level and not turf level to avoid that from happening. We have great success. Try setting them lower.
Thank you for commenting and sharing
Not sure how this showed up in my recommended, but I thoroughly enjoyed watching this. Your voice reminds me of Seth McFarlane (the guy who does Family Guy and American Dad), especially when you get excited and start talking fast.
Makes me think I need to do something similar in my yard, but I don't have a downspout nearby. Water collects and sits for a few days when it rains between my house and my neighbors house in a small little "valley".

Love your videos, ive learned alot just by watching. I bought my first ever house im 25, alot of problems with my first house but my Biggest issue is the slope of my yard then my neighboor behind me yard. every rain day water just puddles so big against the back of my house and it just floods into my crawl space. sadly have big issues under there. Ive been stressed and no idea what to do but thankful for videos it gave me courage and knowledge to want to do it myself. I cant hire anyone so much stuff is eating my pockets atm havent even lived here for a year yet. I dont wnt to do supper cheap way but i still don't want to blow what little money i have. Any rec of the most basic and cost efficient Kits you have on your website for french drain system to help fix my problem? having a hard time finding a kit they all look $$ expensive for me with the extra palat crate of delivery fee.

I have 3 down spouts going into my backyard. I was planning on using your new down spout devices into solid armor (about 15-25 long) and attaching them to wye's in the yard and then on the out of the wye's into slit cut at the lower end of the yard because of sitting water in the summer in that area (putting it in stone and your fabric) and then connecting the slit cut to a drain at the end of my property. Do I need the pop ups or turf restrictor plates since it is going into a drain? Since I am in northeast Ohio I am also adding roof wires to the down spouts to help with the front freezing.
If you core drill through the side of the storm drain catch basin you do not need a pop-up emitter.
ruclips.net/video/esY2dnaRTiQ/видео.html
Could you have 2-3 down spouts + the sump line go into a 3" line? REALLY appreciate the response
No
Wish you guys could just come to Kansas and help me with my system
The kits are a Level 1 installation. 3" is so easy to work with.
Do I need a downspout filter/cleanout if I've installed a mesh gutter guard system?
ruclips.net/p/PLjFCqaZ4v1BUqichor2QH1X_p9bBPor8D&si=S3gHWmwF_pMgB1Id
The inline catch basin and end pop up will freeze solid with ice. Highly recommend putting a rock dry well under the catch basin with allowance for the basin to drain out as well as a ‘T’ fitting at the pop up with a couple of cubic foot French drain rock again to allow melt off to drain out

Great videos, man
Do you plan on making this kit available to Canadian customers? I don't think I see it on the canadian site. Thanks!
Canada with soon have these kits. I would reach out to our distributor. Frenchdrainman.ca
What else would I have to order besides this kit to also connect one more downspout? Have 2 on the side of my garage I want to put underground.
We sell 25ft Baughman 3" corrugated pipe with no parts. Also buy a 3" Wye, a additional Vented Cleanout for 3" corrugated and some tile tape. That's everything.
Could you tie in a sump pump discharge to this 3" pipe or would it need a 4" or separate pipe?
Yes you can tie a sump pump discharge line into a 3" line
@@FRENCHDRAINMAN could you have 2-3 down spouts + the sump line go into a 3" line? REALLY appreciate the response!
So there is no need to use tape after cutting the pipe and attaching the catch basin or emitter? Does this kit's corrugated pipe have slits in it? TY
Solid for 25 ft. 3" holds 56% Less water than 4" so it doesn't need knife cut.
@@FRENCHDRAINMAN TY, My first question was: when you do make a cut to attach the catch basin; Do you need to tape up the attachment. I saw on one of the videos that black tape was used. I plan on ordering the kit.
Can I tie a sump pump discharge into this? And is this depth suitable for areas that freeze?
Yes and yes.
Do you need the special tape for for the quick connections to keep roots out?

I live in between Ann Arbor and Lansing and have every problem you have a video of and probably more . I physically cannot do it because I’m wheelchair bound . Now I need to remove trees that were planted to close to my house too . My sump pump maybe will get a 10 second break when it gets bad outside and my finished basement has already flooded once . I sure do need your help !
Unfortunately that's outside of our service area. Call the office to see if we have a contractor who buys our pipe in your area 248-505-3065
Excellent video. Thanks. What do I do if I have a narrow side yard with big 24” concrete pavers as a path so I only have a narrow band between the pavers and the house (only a foot at spots) to run the correlated drain line for 2 downspouts and there is an irrigation line there too doing the same run? Do I cut out the irrigation pipe out, install the corrugated pipe below it, and then reinstall the sprinkler pipe above it? Or just dig around it and try and squeeze the corrugated pipe underneath for the whole run? Thanks
For decades, we've been handling this wrong. And using a 4 inch pipe where a 4 inch pipe should not be used. If you use one of our 3-inch kits, you can run it over the sprinkler pipe and not have to cut or remove the sprinkler pipe. The reason why our hands were tied with the four inch pipe was because people were trying to push big tree leaves through their underground system. I knew as soon as our Leaf filter gutter adapter product hit the market for screening out the leaves, I was gonna switch the majority of my kits over to 3 inch pipe because there was no need for a 4 inch pipe anymore outside of a 4 inch main pipe if you tied 3, 4 or 5 downspouts into one main pipe.
If I put the pipe on top of the irrigation pipe I won’t get any slope on the corregiste pipe for like 20’. Also, I was going to have 2 in ground belly catch basin drains in the total 70’ run. I live in Hawaii where it rains crazy hard at times. I was told by someone on the phone that 3” pipe wouldn’t be enough. What do you think?
Do you still need knife cut at the end?? I can only find a 100ft reel of knife cut 3" pipe on your website but i dont need that much. The pop up emitter will be about 40-45ft from the house and I live in New england where it gets below freezing. Once I know the answer I am going to pull the trigger on your kit. THANK YOU!!
We don't have 3" knife cut. Our reason is because 4" holds 56% more water than 3" pipe. Just put pea stone around the pop-up emitter and have holes in the bottom. Remember if you freeze up the Vent Cleanout will let the water out during a thaw. The catch basin vents too.
Can you tie two 3x4 downspouts onto a 3” corrugated line?
Yes you can
Not sure why you'd disable the dislikes?! Seems like a great product and good information!
Thank you
Are you able tie in a sump pump line that is next to a gutter?
Only if it's a 4 inch pipe
could I use this on a 2x2 pvc gutter downspout?
It fits inside 4" PVC pipe
Great video! This 3" kit is exactly what I need. I noticed you didn't use the fabric and stone around the catch basin and pop-up. Can you please explain why?
My goal was to build the only NO TOOLS REQUIRED kits on the market that are truly easy for homeowners. Stone and drainage fabric do require additional work. Anyone can use the techniques taught on this channel to customize their own systems. Good question Thank You for commenting and contributing!
I just bought the kit without a catch basin. I’m not sure if I needed one. When would you not need to install a catch basin?
If you don't have gravel shingles.
On another of your videos you suggested not using the black pipe in locations where it freezes (i'm in Idaho). Will this kit work for me?
We sell the all virgin pipe in 3" it's blue. The black kit is 86% Virgin. It's HEAVY DUTY as well. Both are great choices.
Hello, Once this system is installed, can you remove the downspout for replacement in case of a damaged downspout? It looks like it is to right, no wiggle room. Thanks
Yes. Take the gutter strap off and it's a easy replacement

I know you have always said not to tie your downspouts into your french drain system so it's not getting plugged up with shingle gravel and other things. Is it possible to tie them in together if you're using an inline catch basin with sump like the one shown in this video?
ruclips.net/video/uKrUephna_c/видео.html
@@FRENCHDRAINMAN Thank you for the fast reply. Keep up the good work of teaching everyone the right way to do things.
Can I add a second downspout to this 3” line with a Y coupler? Do I need a second catch basin?
Yes and yes. 2 downspouts on one 3" line keep the line clean but if you have a shingle roof you need catch basins to collect the gravel coming off roof.
If I connect 2 or 3 down spouts in one line, do I need to have 4 inch pipe at the end of the run before the pop up???
No. That line will never need to be flushed because that volume of water will keep it nice and clean.
Is the catch basin still needed if connecting to a storm drain?
Not if you run your garden hose through it once a year.
love this... is this kit available in Canada?
Frenchdrainman.ca
Can I get by without a catch basin if I only have room to go about 15 -20 feet with the system?
I do not advise. Put catch basin at 4'-5' away. You need it if you have a shingled roof.
I was going to use PVC and cement all my connections, until i saw the 3" one piece were using. When you started cutting it, your "For me" was over. My discharge level will be the same as the downspout level, therefore my horizontal will always hold water. I do not have the luxury of transporting this water with a slope. Because of this situation, I do not want to use corrugated, because each connection will leak and saturate the ground. If I use PVC and cement each connection and also add a pop-up at the discharge end, would this project be possible and/or successful?
ruclips.net/p/PLjFCqaZ4v1BX_ZMbxsYVB6CNFoeAmuPxX
During winter, is there a chance of freezing and water back up, coming up spilling near the foundation? Thanks
Yes thats the point otherwise it back up in the gutter and destroys the roof causing damage to overhangs, gutters and drywall on the interior. Ice that spreads up under the shingles will destroy a home. By the way how is the water gonna soak in at the foundation if the ground is frozen?
We thought of everything. 38 years doing this I know all the failure modes to every available option. This piece does so much that I can't even cover it in 1 video I do have an entire playlist on this one product.
My question is the pop up won’t that freeze in the winter, it snows then it rains and the next thing you know everything is backing up IMO

I have octagonal downspouts with wooden gutters. Should these be replaced?
No, I have a leaf filter coming out in the spring for the Octagon.
Do you have a kit for 2 downspouts 8 feet away to join into one 3 inch line ?
We sell just 25ft coils and a 3" wye. We have what you need.
Can you run 3inch pipe to the county ditch in front of property? We are in TX and outside of city limits and want to drain our downspouts away from the house.
Just take it to a pop-up emitter so animals and snakes don't plug it.
How would you install this is your front yard slopes toward your house and not away?
I made the video for you
ruclips.net/video/oxWroYtktUA/видео.html
I just ordered a couple of these .. I tried to run a full pressure hose to test the catch basin and the holes drilled in it seem to let 100% of the water out and none of it ever clears to the pop-up.. like most people I am concerned with water at my foundation (80 year old house, unfinished damp basement) so I'd rather not be dumping almost all my water out underground 7 feet from the foundation wall. thoughts?
We can ship you basin with no holes. During a downpour it will build up more Pressure a garden hose isn't really much (3/4" hose). The pop-up emitter V2.0 won't even sweat with a garden hose. You can put up to 5 downspouts on one FDM pop-up emitter V2.0
My downspouts let water pile up 3-5ft from my house causing basement flooding. Having holes all around the black pipe, doesn't that let the water out right in front of the house? Shouldn't there be no holes for the first 10ft or so, so the water can travel further? I am afraid the water will just seep out giving me the same issue. Also, doesn't dirt get in the holes?
Somebody used the wrong pipe. That's wrong wrong wrong
Correct, I have a normal gutter extender that keeps breaking. I’m referring to the pipe in your video.. and asking the question about the holes I see that go all the way around. Wouldn’t that let water out right away? (And dirt in). I’m going to buy your kit, just want to make sure it’s right one.
I am about to purchase your 3 in buried downspout kit, but I have a concrete pathway it will need to go under. Won’t I need a pvc pipe so I can use a pressure washer and hammer it in under the concrete walkway? And what adapter will I need to fit the pvc pipe to your corrugated pipe?
Use 4" PVC and do as you suggested to bore under the sidewalk. You will simply slide the 3" Corrugated through the 4" PVC sleeve.
@@FRENCHDRAINMAN won’t I need to purchase the 3 inch corrugated to 4 inch PVC coupler from your website as well?

engineers say you would bury pipes 12" if they are going to have surface vehicle traffic, but with the concrete and you saying it's not carrying cars, I don't see any problem with the pipe with a few inches of dirt on top to spread the load, then concrete

@@chriswkbrdI see the French drain man doesn’t take criticism well. I do agree there is nothing like digging in nice soft earth like this video. Clay is a bear to dig, not to mention the sandstone type soil in PA and WVA. Just dug holes for a deck. The post hole auger dug down 2” then polished the ground to a nice shiny black. Even the sod he dug in the video was soft. 😂
@FRENCHDRAINMAN what a fukkin prick. Lost business.
Do you recommend taping the joints with the 3" pipe and the inline catch basin as well as the joint with the pop up emitter to prevent root intrusion? If so, what tape do you recommend?
frenchdrainman.com/product/4-x-108-fdms-200-year-tape/
IF you get deluge type rains, like 2" ~ 3" in < 20 minutes, you could be hitting that 3" with over 100 gals/min, plus those pop-ups likely are rated for 40 gals/min., resulting in a big overflow problem down the foundation!
I'm not sure if your math is terrible or if you have been misinformed or both. FDM pop-up emitter handles 240 gallons per minute.

This is great! I have two of them on my house after I replaced the existing drains that were clogged.
A new product idea would be an improvement on the wye connector. The 3” ADS wye does not fit well. It would also be better for the wye to have an internal connector on the exit point which goes inside the 3inch corrugated pipe so the water is flowing inside at all times. Same goes for the ADS external coupler (3” to 3”). The top connection should be external but the exit point should go inside the corrugated pipe. The downspout filter is great because the bottom snaps inside the 3” inch corrugated pipe
Dumb question: at what point does water exit the system? Does this need to connect to a French drain?
ruclips.net/video/wawHvSs0UV4/видео.html
Is the 3” black pipe just as durable as the 4” blue pipe?
Yes its Heavy Duty. The Black is 86% virgin material the blue is 100% virgin material. We felt the black looked better coming up out of the ground and connecting to the Vented Cleanout Leaf Filter. If people request it I will build a Blue Kit. It's all about what the DIYers want. I'm building an entire TORRENTIAL RAIN LINE just for DIYers. No tools needed kits that are BadAss.

I guess I’m just confused on where this water will run off to? Does it seap out from the end? It doesn’t look like perforated pipe?
3" pipe holds 56% less water than 4" pipe. It's on 1% Slope as well.
Yeah, I don't get it either. I guess that pop up opens and you flood your lawn. I used 40' of solid pipe to get away from the foundation followed by 40' of perforated pipe covered in a sleeve and gravel to dissipate my water...
