Quantity needed of each part will vary based on several factors specific to your project including system length, rainfall intensity, and number of problem areas. Pipe and fittings are offered in two sizes: 3" and 4". Size availability will vary based on region and store. Ensure that component sizes are consistent throughout your drainage system.
