I am installing a French drain between my driveway and house. The only place to exit the French drain is on top of the driveway. However, If the end of the drain exits the driveway, this severely limits the depth of the French drain in order to ensure a slope toward the end if that makes sense.

My question is, I have seen pop up drain emitters. They basically look like a 4 inch 90 degree elbow with a top that pops up when water pressure is exerted. Will a French drain product enough pressure to force the water out of this type of emitter since water will have to travel "up hill" albeit for just the length of the elbow.

I appreciate any advice!
