It worked reallly well....which is good.

did you only go through a single tote of water

I don't understand why you folks don't get a u-shaped connection with a valve you can attach to end of pipe so you don't have to stand on a latter to connect it. Plus this way the weight of the hose length is pulling down instead of tending to lean pipe over.

Can you do it without any cloth and just dig a hole and fill it with rocks? This way the water doesn't have to go through that cloth filter. Would that work?

Maybe just the wrong fabric used.

1.5 hours? You gotta be kidding me. Mine only took 20 minutes rookie

My luck is there’s rock and tree roots every foot

So obviously if you are trying to dig an 8" wide trench an 8" wide shovel will be faster than using a 5" wide shovel. Use the shovel that matches the desired trench width. Don't use an 8" shovel if you only need a 4" wide trench.

Yeah, it’ll work for a lil while. Soon as it rains hard enough and long enough to flood it good, it’ll clog up with mud and won’t drain anymore. Just a waste of time.

Forgot to tell you you need to buy a 100$ post hole digger

Wow

Is this the same Chevy you had with a lifter tick?

Hey I need to drill a 20 ft bore hole and empty out water for construction, I am going to be able to use this method to empty out the water, thank you so much!

City councils are controlled by builders, and code offices are struggling to keep people at work

Do you need pipe fabric for these verticals drains?

Great video! Question: Did you grade the ditch so that the water will be directed towards the basin, or will there be pockets where water will sit?

What is a hard pan and how do you know how far down it is?

I believe this is called a dry well. It is commonly used for routing gutter spouts fro the foundation away from the house.

I've hit the dad milestone where I am spending more time wathcing more videos about lawncare and DIY projects than anything else. Excellent content by the way.

Thank you for this excellent video! My house has significant crawlspace flooding everytime we get heavy rain and I have been looking for this exact information so I can do this myself. I am also going to install a vertical drain in a low spot in my backyard thanks to your latest videos.

Chuck! Love your videos! question. I have puddle issues around my driveway. If I wasn’t to do a vertical drainage project. What’s your thoughts on making small holes in the hard pan by hammering rebar in several spots. hammer it down pull it out move it over hammer down pull it out etc. then with the hard pan being penetrated in several spots would the water be able to drain better?

That is not a real life test

Is hard cap another term for frost line?

I could have sworn that this is exactly how sink holes are created, right ?

What is the hard pan you speak about?

What prevents the well point slots from getting clogged ?

Perfect! I was just looking at those textiles of grid for RV pads! It's like 3K for a pad. You just cut my cost drastically!! ❤ it. Thank you

Those tarps won’t last very long.

Awesome to see in action! You can have the concept in your head, but when you see it it "clicks" a little better. You also want some slope on the tubing, right?

Great video man. I imagine some people's hard layer is like really deep though, yeah?

What the heck is the ground made of there??? It looks like a lot of ash is coming out.... I know it isn't... but all that grey matter is weird!

How wide do you cut for a 2in channel drain?

Your not draining it, your storing it 😂

Yes, if you are digging a trench that wide use a normal width but to use a trench shovel for that width is not smart, the trench shovel is great so you don't have to mive a lot of dirt if you are using it for that width only , you don't need 8 inches for ¾ pipe or even 2 inch pipe, unless multiple pipes. I would use the sod cutter and a trench shovel, why move all that dirt when not needed sometimes less is more

EASY soil. Try that in my soil and it would take 20 times longer.

Should we drill small holes on the bottom of the catch basins? Other videos suggest that with some gravel bed and fabric cloth below.

Does appledrains do apprenticeships pr work study and/or internship or the likes also regarding careers etc?

I love KZfaq!!. Thank you

Would it help to make the straight down even much bigger if you have a much bigger area/ water coming? I mean like e.g. 5ft x 5ft, filling it up with gravel?

Thanks for advice I will use this for my drain, have a field at the back of us about 2mtrs above our ground and when it rains with the slope water had been collecting behind causing waterlogged ground , I’ll need approx 50 ‘ to go full length and down side to bottom of drive which slopes away . Thanks for your time and sharing .

Be a good idea for extra filtration/protection if used on top of a French drain wouldnt it?

Chuck, you are a beacon of light. It’s so refreshing when we occasionally run into someone that loves what they do….its inspiring. I love your enthusiasm. God bless.

Wow you just shaved me a bunch time and expense! Love your videos!!!! I started here instead of Home Depot!

Buddy if ur going under n it's getting louder it's a rod knocking n if it's up top it's a lifter .

4:47 “Who you talking to?” 😂

great work! the sad thing is thats how it should always be. It bothers me that builds like that don't come automatically like that.

Love this channel.

What about installing a water tank for excess water 💧 to water the grass and garden beds is that allowed in America 🇺🇸

must be nice not having rocks and clay!

very good idea, do you think this will work on Texas clay?
