Edit......... I completely missed the "eight inch per foot" part, watersides aren't that steep, guess he meant 8" over 10', that's still really steep. 1" over 10' will drain water @60' including pipe resistance. Carl's back yard is going to drain so fast the water is going to shoot up on the lawn of the neighbor across the street. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More dosen't hurt on drain lines but more does hurt on sewer lines, for a poopy reason.

Yep you waited for the warmest day this year, it's OK it is still way cooler than in a couple of months. We never thought we would see you laying pipe, your not shy the whole neighborhood also got to watch, plus it's online. You can go to work and tell everyone you did it on the front lawn and all the neighbors are jealous, they want there turn, that's what enough martinis will do for you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct, the liquid can outrun the solids.....then you have problems.
