HDPE Perforated Pipe

FAQs

•  What is HDPE perforated pipe?

HDPE perforated and slotted pipe is the preferred material for water drainage, leachate systems, cable protection, ducting, and landfill gas dissipation.

• What is the use of perforated pipes?

Perforated pipe systems can be thought of as long infiltration trenches or linear soakaways designed for both stormwater conveyance and infiltration. They are underground stormwater conveyance systems designed to reduce contaminant loads to receiving waters by attenuating runoff volume.

• How deep should perforated pipe be?

The trench should be about 2 feet deep and sloped downward in the direction you want the water to flow. Cut any roots that are growing in your French drain.

• How does perforated pipe carry water?

Perforated pipe, on the other hand, is identical in shape to solid pipe, but has holes or slots cut into it along its entire length, allowing water to enter and exit freely.

• Is perforated pipe good for drainage?

A perforated pipe has small slots or holes that allow water to easily exit or enter. Because of its ability to absorb and drain water, this type of pipe is commonly used for underground drainage systems and other outdoor applications.
