Don’t let another stormwater downpour turn your lawn and downspout areas into a soggy mess. Water that can’t properly drain aren’t just eyesores—it can lead to soil erosion, seep into your home’s foundation, and cause other costly property damage. Here’s how to fix it. Drain excess water away with a 9 in. square catch basin storm drain. Ideal for lawns, landscaped areas, under downspouts, patios, and walkways—even areas where runoff from neighboring property can pool up on your property. The 9 in. stormwater catch basin connects to 3 in., 4 in., and 6 in. drain pipe with applicable outlet adapter (sold separately). As part of a complete drainage system, the catch basin captures surface water and directs it to drain pipes which carry the water to a discharge point downstream such as a pop-up emitter, or to percolate into the ground with a dry well or infiltration trench. Basin is made of polypropylene, a type of plastic, treated with UV inhibitors. Built-in sump is easy to access and clean. Choose from a variety of compatible grates to block debris from your drainage system; load rating will vary based on type of grate selected.
