I hate digging!!!
So last fall I noticed the sump pump was spitting out the over flow spout... a little more than I remember... hmmmm
This past winter, it was completely spitting out... made an icey mess in the backyard. But couldn't do shit about it with frozen ground. So this is what I removed. The 22.5/45 elbows had tons of calcium build up inside... stopping the flow of water. Also, stupid Sked 30 thin crap!! Oh and classic dinner when working hard. I hate digging... I think I mentioned that... especially in clay! My new sked 40 thicker job is much better. Even added a full 3" clean out in line as well. All of which will be just barely barried. The new crazy elbows... can't see it anymore, but there is a 30 to 40 bushing on the old pipe... going downward at a 45* angle downward into the neighbors yard and the larger storm drain... Of coarse we tested the downward 45* to ensure good flow. Installed it all and test it as well. 3' deep 17' long $45 in PVC The joys of home ownership. I still hate digging. |
