I have deployed this system severally especially in water logged areas. I think the inlet pipe should be atleast 1" above the outlet pipe, both ends of the pipe should equally be protected with vertically positioned wire mesh. Mine was deeper but the pipes didn't have to be at the bottom, since one of my filtration layers includes aluminium sulphate, so the extra space at the bottom allows for coagulation to take place there hence ensuring that the water that leaves there is very clear. The aim is to reduce the amount of turbidity and improve dissolved oxygen to the acceptable limits should the body responsible for environment decide to run a test with the effluents.
@@ahuchaoguprince thanks for your insightful comment. We didn’t lower the second pipe because the gradient was good and we wanted the water to retain in the chamber for a slower release into the gutter.
Nope. Use this method if you’re connecting the leachate pipe into a gutter ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mGCt-HTabas.htmlsi=MmNRmZJPh-0YbPE2
