Do French Drains Prevent Erosion?
The French drain system has been increasingly used to help prevent erosion for many years. This type of drainage system consists of a slightly sloping trench filled with gravel and an enclosed pipe placed at its base. When installed correctly, it allows excess water to be diverted away from the soil, thus avoiding the constant barrage of water that can cause erosion.
French drain systems are highly effective solutions for staving off decay as they can temporarily divert thousands of gallons of water from potentially dangerous areas and act as an infiltration system that can retain some moisture near the surface.
The Key To Cleaning A French Drain Pipe
Locate The Clog
Before you can begin cleaning your French drain pipe, you first need to locate the clog. This can often be done with a camera inspection of the pipe, which will allow you to identify where the blockage is located. Once you have identified the location of the clog, you can move on to step two.
Remove Debris From Inside The Pipe
Once you know where the clog is located, itโs time to remove any debris from inside the pipe. This can be done using a manual auger or snake tool that can reach deep into the pipes and remove any debris that may be causing a blockage. If this doesn’t solve the problem, then it’s time for step three.
Clean Out The Pipe With A High-Pressure Washer
If manual removal of debris doesn’t fix your problem, then it’s time to bring out some heavy-duty equipment in order to get your French drain pipe clean again. A high-pressure washer is an effective way to clear out stubborn blockages and flush away any remaining dirt or mud from inside of the pipe so that it runs freely once again.

Frequently
Asked Questions

When considering the installation of a French drain, it is important to understand its limitations. Although this type of drainage system helps to divert surface water away from an area, it is not for every situation. It can only be used for light amounts of water and does not work as a substitute for surface drains. Its effectiveness decreases in hard soil or when installed on a steep slope.
When it comes to selecting the size of stone for a French Drain, 1-1/2″ round stones are most effective. By using a perforated pipe in combination with the drain rock, water is able to flow through your system while also keeping any soil from entering in. This ensures your system will function optimally throughout its lifespan.
