Channel drains
Many residents in Decatur and Madison Have these channel drains around their pools to keep dirty water from flowing into the pool. These drains save home owners countless hours in pool maintenance as well as repairs. People also install these drains across driveways to prevent water from flowing into their garage and causing damaged to the dry wall and any machinery stored inside. These drains are also found along sidewalks and areas that do not have a lot of grass or vegetation to help disperse rain water.
Channel drains also known as trench drains are a specific type of drain that created by creating a small trench or channel in the concrete. Once the channel is created a drainage pipe with a grate is installed. The drainage pipe sits on a slight slope to allow gravity to assist the water to flow towards a designated drainage area. These drains are used for the rapid evacuation of rain and ground water away for buildings and pools.
