Back yard drainage...
Posted earlier about standing water in the back yard, and we are now headed
into another installment of the rainy season around here. Wondering: what would be wrong with routing the worst of the drainage problem into the sewer, via the drain that the washer uses. This one, I am fairly certain, will get shot down in flames. But I have no idea as to how or why as of yet. Anyone care to comment? I am thinking that if I can provide sufficient filtration to catch the majority of debris, it ought to work. I've even seen large square drains in the middle of yards on the other side of town that can't go anywere but the sewer. They are just larger, with (I presume) larger pipes. Does anyone think that a 4" line could be made to suffice for such a purpose? Please, fire away. All I am trying to do is give the water that collects over the back sidewalk during a heavy rain somewhere to go. Thanks, Dave |
