Finally a video that doesn’t have a 5 minute intro about nonsense. Thank you!
I just ordered the same kit and had the exact same questions about installing the outlets. Your video was illuminating on the subject. Thank you, sir.
Jason, Thanks for this very good video. I searched all over the NDS Web Site, Google, Amazon & others & i finally found your video that explains exactly what I was thinking & planning on doing. Its amazing that every video shows the 4" pipes are installed into the adapters without knocking out the 3" adapter, which as you stated, defeats the purpose of using the 4". Thanks again foe taking the time on this video!
Thanks for the vid. I was hesitant to try it myself and ruin the basin. Sure glad you uploaded this.
OMG! The best video on how to set this up. I searched everywhere and even asked others. No one knew how to do it. Thank you so much!
Good video - NDS needs to put some better documentation in these things so people can understand how to knock out the 3" portion if using 4" corrugated pipe, Silicone sealer on all connections seems to make them air tight and assist with combatting root infestation!
Dude! This was exactly what I needed... another video suggested silicon around each of the adapters, and the hose, but didn't mention the knock outs. You just solved my problem, thanks!
Dude thank you so much, this is exactly what I needed!!! Even the NDS website doesn't give proper info. I saw yours had some sort of paper instructions, mine did not! Anyway thank you for this video!
So there I was trying to figure out how to take the knockout out. I have done hundreds of electrical knockouts but I was ready to get out the saw. I owe you a beer! A case of beer! Thanks.
Superb video. You answered everything I needed to know on this. Good job.
Thank you thank you THANK YOU!! This is the only video I found with actual instructions on how to do the knockout. SOOO incredibly helpful!
Thank You X 2. You are bolder than I am. I saw the knockout arrows but it wasn't clear to me either & I didn't want to damage the basin & throw > $40.00 down the drain so to speak. (I bought a 9") Also, I'm glad I watched the video all the way through because I was placing the plugged adapter on the outside of the basin. Thank You again.
Thank you! Holiday weekend and have everything dug up and a rented excavator… did not want to bring everything to a halt breaking the knockout. The only thing I wanted instructions for and it wasn’t on the sheet.
Great video-I needed it! I added a basin filter for mine. Easy to take rinse off and reinstall.
Thanks so muchJason! You addressed the exact same issue that I had. Despite being told the unit came with instructions, it did not. In addition to answering my question, you provided other helpful advice that I will follow. Thanks again and be well!
THANK YOU!!! Had the exact same question and was scared to start cutting for my 4" pipe until I knew exactly where to cut.
Wish I knew this before I did my install. Thanks!
Huge help - thank you!!
Jason.. huge high five.. just need to do the knockout without hacking it up. Thanks!
Exactly what we needed!!! Thanks!!
Very helpful, Jason. Thank you!
thank you- this video saved me so much time!
I just got this. Thank you for sharing. Very helpful.
Thanks for video. Very informative and helpful.
Thank you. I needed this! Great video!!
You read my mind! Great vid!
Thanks so much bought one for my daughters house and was wondering the same thing !!!!
This was extremely helpful.
man I needed this
Thanks so much for the video. Super helpful.
Great video thanks for uploading.
Thank you so much! Everything I needed to know! Awesome! A+
Thank you. No instructions about this lol. Thanks for the help.
Great video. Another option, I actually cut around where the 4 inch knockout is marked with a utility knife and it fell right out.
I agree there is not a lot of detailed info. Thanks for posting. I'd say 9 x 1/4" holes is overkill. However using some landscape fabric to line your pit will help. With many large holes and light rain you may end up just saturating ground verses filling the basin and having it convey away from the basin. I'd say 4 x 1/8" is plenty. If it ever gets blocked you can poke it with a rod or drill bit.... The idea is for water to drain away slowly not be too free flowing to the gravel under the box. Just my opinion. Cheers. (PS installing two basins today)
I would like to see theses holes 1/4 or 1/8 inch holes on bottom work after the first rain. Over time, stone or no stone fabric or no fabric underneath it will clog with dirt and debris trying to drain out the tiny wholes. I think it will require weekly "Poking" of the holes to get the water to completely drain out.
@@mikej1570 Fact is the 1" of standing water if not absorbed by ground will evaporate, no big deal. The idea in theory is have lots of rock under basin drain through holes in bottom, so water will fill the air voids between rocks under basin and seep into dirt. If the soil is permeable or perk-able water will go away as ground absorbs it. Clay like I have not so much, but given enough time water will flow. Other wise what doesn't drain will sit in there. It might be best to fill bottom of basin with concrete so most water exits the drain pipe. However it does not bother me some water sits in basin. We don't have mosquito issue here...
I installed everything the same with the exception of the second drain adapter and the plug. I did not want to sacrifice the catchment volume, so I placed it on the outside of the catch basin. I used some OSI gutter sealant that was laying around to adhere the plug to the drain adapter. By doing it this way, aside from the sealant, when you pack the trench with aggregate, that should serve as an additional force to hold the cap in place. The pressure from a 12" full catch basin is not enough to push the cap, sealant and aggregate; however, over time, the water and dirt on the outside of the catchment may eventually push your plug *in*. I dunno. Time will tell.
Bro you the fucking man. I spent a good 1 hr trying to figure this stupid thing out
Great info. Thank you.
Thank you. Super helpful :)
Great job I was wondering how to seal the other end
I've watched a lot of Apple Drain videos and have not seen where he had to do that. He uses 4" corrugated pipe also. He also shows how to snap that piece on.
Super video now I know how to assembly the basin, NDS instructions are worthless.
Thanks!
Thanks Jason. I need a three outlet catch basin which means does this basin have an option of cutting out a third outlet. Thought it had....
Thanks. Can the same thing be done to the 6 inch speedy basin.? BTW, no one has done a video of that...
Thank you! couldn't figure the damn thing out!! FYI, make sure to use silicone on your hose connection...NDS prefers smooth PVC, but I have seen where corrugated actually clears debris better.
Thanks again!
Great video ! However, now that this is installed and working can you please report back to see if your 9 - 1/4 inch holes on the bottom of box are completely clogged. I am curios to see if holes on bottom with stone or fabric or whatever would drain the residual water in the box. I would imagine that the small holes would clog after 1st rain with dirt and yard debris.. But I am VERY COURIOUS... Again THANKS for VIDEO VERY NICELY DONE!
Everything is working well. In the end, I decided to line the bottom of the hole with landscape fabric and then just fill it with rocks and then set the box on top of the rocks. It’s draining well. I have very hard clay soil where I live so the water doesn’t drain into the soil easily, if I had more permeable soil I might drill fewer or smaller holes. Don’t put fabric on top of the rocks as debris pretty easily clogs the holes and prevents draining.
Question. Is water supposed to leak out the sides of the holes where you put the pipe and the cap? The basin I have leaks water out of the sides when the pipe is in
Use Silicone sealer on all connections
Questions??? I didn't seal my other outlet when I installed my catch basin. Is there any way I can seal now?
I watched the videos on homedepot site and they do say to put silicone sealants around the large adaptor when putting them on as well. Just FYI late to the party.
Is the pipe supposed to snap into the adapter? Can’t seem to get a snug fit. It almost falls out. Thanks
Mine didn’t. I just cut the pipe a smidge long so it pushed into the adapter and box.
Jason, I need to knock out one of the sides for a 3rd 4” pipe. I’ve taken a hammer to it around the outline but the knockout won’t budge. Can you tell me how to knockout a side opening? Thank you.
Sorry Dave, I haven’t worked with a three/four sided version yet. From what I’ve seen I believe you would cut it out. Might want to drop a note to NDS and see what they say.
Awesome! Just the information I needed!
Did you use screws to secure the 4” pipe?
Thanks. No I just cut it a smidge longer than it needed to be and force fit it in.
Classic..zero chance people behind designing these ever Picked up a shovel in there life. Im hating and a hypocrite because I use them daily, but they got quite the racket going on with those things.
What you can do is hook up your pipe to the basin and then to a T fitting .
It's harder to scrape the crud out with that fitting pointed inward...
Dude! You're my hero! Thank you for making this video. I'm putting a French Drain in and ran into the same problem with the NDS Catch Basin and the knock out. I'm all kinds of green doing these projects and your video helped me so much. I'm thankful for your thoughtfulness in making the video to help us newbies out. Be blessed!
My drain boxes are up against the house foundation so I need the backside to be flat, that's why I put the unused fitting on the inside. Probably should have stated that in the video.
NDS makes a flat cap that locks in the 2nd opening, think it was 4 bucks at Menards
How do you keep the pipe from coming out and sealing ???
When you get it all put together and in the ground just cut the hose a tiny smidge longer and the pressure pushing into the box will keep it in place. It's in the dirt so no need to seal it.
yeah, WTF NDS, this is still not in their documentation.
How do you secure the corrugated pipe into the fitting?
It's just a pressure fit. It kind of clicks into place.
@@jasonjesseph6424 Wouldn't that leak though? I assume you need to reinforce the connection with silicone or some waterproof tape.
Hell it took 3 of us to click in the connectors into the box
Dude that second piece is on wrong if your fitting a 4" pipe to.
I work for NDS. im a lead over in Lindsay ca. You actually got a undersized cap for the 1244 which was not supposed to get released but mistakes happen. Its not supposed to be that loose, I do apologize on behalf of NDS.
