Guys, I made stainless steel 16gauge channels that but up to the bottom of these channels and pop riveted with a washer on the plastic side to keep the bow out if these trenches. The inherent bow of these trenches are as much as 1/8” call me picky but once the cement is dry, there’s no going back. More than well worth the investment for my time!
And now in a decent downpour when the discharge point is completely overwhelmed and stormwater is backflowing due to the pressure you have a lovely channel to guide that water straight into the house...
@@888DFINITY lmao, obviously you didn't read my question properly...do i need to lame it down for you, so your simpleton one dimensional peanut brain capacity can understand? Y/N...
Nice video but I wonder why he never discussed ensuring the right amount of pitch for the channel drain, so that that there is enough slope for water to flow into the storm sewer ? Also, I think the best (perhaps costliest) long term solution is to redo the pavers and slope it AWAY from the house. I had pavers done on my patio over 20 years ago and I was a stickler with my contractor measuring the slope every few minutes ! Drove them nuts but I have ZERO water issues with it as all water flows AWAY from the house, period.
Yeah, similar drains have been available for decades. I installed my first of these types of drains back in the '80s. If you have vehicle loads, make sure you buy properly-rated drains (especially in front of garages where vehicles drive same location over and over) and install continous support base
John, because french drains are porous to accept water, they can also shed water as well. French drains near a home's foundation should be installed at the foundation's footing, not at the surface / at grade. Such footing level french drains are called 'perimeter drains." Channel drains like the product above in the video appear better for surface / at grade installation. Good luck with your project.
@@thomasmartin8580 don't get hurricanes in Australia, but agree that the ground should always slope away from the house, this is only a tutorial from Reln not fixing the overall issue of water flow
Poor video lots of details not addressed such as: which end shoudl be the high side with the blank end cap? Do you glue the sections together or silicone them? What was the installer doing with the silicone? No information is given about how to connect corners and use the knockouts. I bought a couple sections because I like the product as a concept but there could be a lot more detail to help with the installation. This video is titled how to install RELN Storm drain after all...

Great video, well presented with some good tips, especially the spot dobs of mortar and the masking tape. Thank you.
This video was draining my brain with good information. Thank you!

Nice project. I like your product. Thanks for the instruction on the pads instead of a continuous footing. I will use that tip.
In.
Nope 👎 you will never get that mud under 💯 complete bed all the way , Sparge up both side and the header corse is bonded to inside of drain
Nice work very cleaned finished
Nice work! I have to deal with one of these spring and this was helpful towards a solution.
+1 .. Excellent tutorial ... Vail, Colorado
Where is the SLOPE to make the water fall downward?
But what about the (missing) flashing to protect the bottom edge of the siding? Those bottom boards will rot.

How much is the 8meter drainage channel kit?
Im in Sydney
Great video!

I like this It looks a hell a lot easier than putting in a French drain. I will have to find if these are available in California.

When is Jason Hodges going to get back on tv!
Electric eel. Never heard of it referred to as that.
Very well done !
Ground should slop away from house with drain at far side. Little drain will eventually get overwhelmed.
That should have been done when they made the patio. Now it's just damage control.
Redo the patio if you want done right. Depends on regions and runoff... Not gonna work In a hurricane!

Your kidding right? What's a cyclone?
Why are we using silicone instead of ABS cement???
Abs cement won't adhere to this type of plastic.
Why solvent will glue this together?
Do homes in Australia not have foundation footing perimeter drains?
depends on the age of the home, we have a lot of different builds here
You DID NOT PUT A FALL ON YOUR DRAIN
GOID LUCK WITH THAT DARIN

Header corse should be pointed up or sealed between drain and header Jason cmon mate!!
this old manis going to have trouble cleaning this system all the time! fill the french system with gravel and never worry about it.
Should never do it like that as you need to put a layer sand down first to get your gradient
To be fair he’s laying to exsisting level
Wtf
That’s awesome
You don’t even take laser shots. What a joke.
