Catch Basin Installation Butler, PA
Catch Basins, aka storm drains, are a large underground reservoir that collects and disperses runoff water.
They are a versatile drainage solution that can be used as a standalone solution or you can implement a larger system.
Depending on your what you are looking for, you can get catch basins and grates in different shapes and sizes.
You can use catch basins in a number of different scenarios, including gardens, driveways, under downspout drains, and anywhere else your water is running off to.
They are then connected to a drainpipe that runs the water to a ditch or some other designated area.

How a Catch Basin Drainage System Works
A catch basin shuttles water away from your home through buried pipes to a safer location.
Here's a walkthrough of where the water goes from the sky down:
-
Catch basin grate: Water exits the bottom of the downspout or down a slope and runs through the catch basin's top grate.
-
Catch basin: Water rises in the catch basin until it reaches the exit pipe.
-
Pipes: Buried 3-inch or 4-inch pipes running on a decline carry the water away.
-
Exit Point: Water leaves the end of the drainage pipe, soaking into the ground or flowing away.
