Why Corrugated Pipe is Better than PVC Pipe for Yard Drainage

[Music] anybody that tells you that yard drains are a one-size-fits-all they're a are their own full unfortunately homeowners are put in a tailspin and they feel like with their water problem they're stuck on an island because of all the gimmicks that are out there well you're not stuck on an island because Baughman tile heard your needs and Baughman tile made the first pipe just for yard drains and foundation drains I've been wanting to do this for quite some time I want to show you how corrugated pipe that single wall is self-cleaning I want to explain it and I want to show you it's something that you really need a visual so this is Baughman single wall four inch corrugated square you can see how it's kind of squared here that's for strength this pipe is incredibly strong and the inside is rounded really nice and I'm gonna show you how this pipe is self-cleaning how it was designed to work and here's the Baughman high-octane it's rounded on the inside squared on the outside for strength man look at those endless this pipe is just incredible so here's a clear piece of 4-inch corrugated pipe what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna run water through it and I'm gonna show you guys how the turbulence that's created because of the ribs the rounded ribs this pipe is self-cleaning and I'll start by putting pine cones through it tree bark all kinds of stuff and now when I talk about turbulence like this bucket water those waves that's not turbulence that's not turbulence turbulence is a true mixing and this mixing this turbulence that occurs when the water is running that's what takes to the breed just collects the debris suspends it in the liquid and carries it out to the discharge end of whatever kind of system you have whether it's for down spouts whether it's for yard drainage and you're using the high-octane these this rounded interior creates this self-cleaning turbulence and I can't wait to get the water flowing and show you I deliberately set this up to where the discharge end is in a pothole you can see the water you can see all the turbulence look at that look at that action that's gonna remove any sediment but I did deliberately put a belly in at the end of a 50-foot run most downspouts don't have a 50-foot run but I wanted to use a 50-foot piece of corrugated clear 4-inch pipe just so that we could see it in probably the worst-case scenario now I'm gonna send a bunch of debris down it's gonna be bark pine cones annual flower leaves that aren't dried but they're you know actually green and heavy and I'm gonna show you you can see that none of this is getting stuck necessarily in the ridges and valleys that's what everybody wants to you know tell you happens with corrugated pipe notice because of the belly that all the debris collects and gets caught up in the belly that's where failure lies and that's on the Installer that's not on single wall corrugated pipe so I'm going to show you the turbulent action that we get with single wall corrugated pipe so that we can put all these mists aside about how PVC pipe is better than corrugated pipe because it's not all I have is just a garden hose this is a moderate rain it's not much at all you can see the turbulence you can see the turbulence inside look at that four-inch corrugated pipe with those rounded ribs to create that turbulence look at how there's no material in there you don't see no bark no pine cones no leaves bush trimmings I stuck a whole bunch of stuff in there you know clean it is nothing slain nothing's laying in this pipe the turbulence just swept swept it all away so here we are you can see the turbulence you can see the the action we're getting out of the fluid and that's all the crap I shoved in there I tried to plug it and it didn't plug it all washed right to the end here and just got hung up in the grass but you know that's how corrugated pipe works I hope you guys learned something today I'm always trying to give you a visual aid if you guys like when I do this kind of stuff to help you you know we're trying to debunk these myths you know they're lies obviously the PVC pipe companies they don't want they don't want the word to get out about this corrugated pipe and how well it works look at that look at that see smooth wall pipe doesn't have any turbulence so you're not gonna get this kind of action god that's I love it I love it look at that so we're gonna do more with this and I'm gonna use this four inch corrugated clear pipe to teach you more younger contractors know this 33 years I've had to put up with all these myths about how single wall corrugated pipe has issues and collects debris literally it got this bad rep because of bad installers di wires this is a user-friendly drain tile I love working with single wall pipe it's so flexible and go around AC units and all types of obstacles in your landscape it's great to work with I love this stuff so regardless of all the noise that's being made because that's all it is look at the pile of debris that I shoved in that 4-inch corrugated single wall pipe as fast as I could I had to take the hose out to shove fistfuls of this would pinecones and some wet leaves not dried out leaves and I have the hose only on like halfway so this is a moderate rain and it all just washed right out so you can't deny the fact that single wall corrugated pipe with all its turbulence can carry just about anything you know what I'm gonna put the kitchen sink through this before this is over trust me I'm gonna use this clear 4-inch 50 foot piece of corrugated pipe to teach you guys a lot about corrugated pipe the ridges and valleys on the interior of this clear 4-inch 50 foot corrugated pipe is a dead match on how Baughman Stiles made and how the interior of their tiles is look at the turbulence look at that anything I don't care what it is and I'm gonna do a video for you where I'm gonna put sand through this thing I just haven't had the time this was the first video I shot using this clear and this hose is only running this is a garden hose it's it I opened up halfway it's not blasting water you can see that this is a moderate rain and look at the turbulent action we're getting it's unbelievable and they want to tell me that this pipe has problems this pipe collects debris no way PVC I see it all the time laying flat in the bottom of a flat pipe yes look at that turbulence this has to be one of the hardest things to explain so that's why I went through all the trouble and spent the money to provide a visual aid look at that turbulence water mixing together any debris that would come down this pipe now you see the belly I put in there for this test so I could show you how that you know is the problem the Installer is the problem not the corrugated pipe love this pipe I love the action that we get when we run water through this you can see why it works so well can you imagine a really hard rain can you imagine a torrential rain it'll wash away pebbles you'd be surprised if you would like me to do more videos like this just go ahead and hit the like on this video and I'll be more than happy to do it for you look at that look at that action we're getting out of the water I love corrugated pipe and this is why 33 years and I'm not switching to PVC alright guys until next time let's all work hard to do it right the first time we're going to keep it simple udi wires stay tuned for more high octane [Music]
