WHAT SIZE DRAINPIPE FOR FRENCH DRAINS?
French Drains can be decorated with many types of stone
French Drains can utilize several types and sizes of French Drainpipe. An older type that is not commonly used any more is 4-inch PVC Pipe with large half inch holes drilled in the Pipe.
This doesn’t work very well, Because the holes are too large and the number of holes in the French Drainpipe are too few. Also there is no filter or “Soc” around this particular French Drainpipe. If it is used in sandy or loose soil the holes will clog and the pipe will fill up with sand. PVC French Drainpipe should be avoided.
ADS French Drainpipe is much better; the holes are smaller and much more numerous. It also comes inside a soc that acts as a filter and helps keep sand and debris out of the French Drainpipe. It works very well.
French Drain in flowerbed
For Small business and Residential French Drains, four inch ADS Perf/Soc French Drainpipe is adequate and the most common. It is used for the majority of all French Drains installed. French Drains can be installed using 3 inch ADS Perf/Soc but many times it is too small and can be overwhelmed by a heavy rain or from a bad design. (Too many gutter down spouts connected directly into the French Drain, For Example) Three Inch French Drainpipe should be avoided if possible.
Six inch ADS Perf/Soc French Drainpipe is usually a good idea when possible. It carries a much larger volume of water. Six Inch French Drains are rarely overwhelmed.
