Water on Patio or Pool Deck (Low): Installation Instructions
- Dig trench for drain pipe.
- Dry fit (no glue) the entire drainage system from the area drains to the pop-up emitter.
- Measure and cut all pipe to necessary lengths.
- After completing each step, glue parts together if a water-tight connection is required.
TIP: If installing the drain in an existing concrete area, a wet concrete saw will be required to cut the concrete prior to installation.
- The flat area drain should be installed in a low spot in your patio or pool deck.
- Slide the grate into the drain pipe.
- Apply glue to an elbow and drain pipe and connect the elbow.
- Glue a section of drain pipe to the other end of the elbow.
- Connect the drain pipe to an elbow with a weep hole. The elbow should be installed with the weep hole on the horizontal side of the elbow.
- Slide the Pop-up Emitter onto the elbow. An additional length of pipe can be used between the elbow and Pop-Up Emitter to bring the Pop-up emitter to the surface.
- The Pop-Up Emitter fits on the “bell” or “hub”end of the pipe or a pipe coupler.
TIP: To avoid damaging your Pop-Up Emitter with your lawn mower, raise the cutting level of the blades or avoid passing the mower over the Pop-Up Emitter.
- Back fill and replace any grass or plants that were removed.
