Channel drains, sometimes called ‘trench’ or ‘linear’ drains, collect and remove excess water from driveways, patios, and other paved areas, such as around a garage or conservatory. This system helps prevent flooding, overspills, and further problems caused by stagnant water accumulation.
You'll need to connect the channel drainage to 110mm drainage pipes to direct this water away efficiently. This pipework will guide the water to a surface water drain or soakaway as part of a reliable underground drainage system.
