Greenhouse Drainage: Will this solution work? Male
Default Greenhouse Drainage: Will this solution work?

Hello all,

As you all know by now I am making a paver floor in my GH and one concern that was brought to my attention was getting proper drainage. My question is will this solution work?

Buying one of these and putting it in the back corner, https://www.lowes.com/pd/NDS-6-in-L-...E&gclsrc=aw.ds

Having it go a few inches under the base using a downward PVC pipe and an elbow to go outside, and finally routing the water to another section of yard using these with gravel Access Denied

Will this work?

Are the channel drains better? Keep in mind, I am only dealing with at the very most 16 gallons of water a week in an 8x12 structure that slopes down slightly at the 12 foot side.

Is there a simpler or easier solution? What is my best and most efficient option.

Thank you.

Additional question: If I do get pipes that take the water out of the GH, do they have to be buried “below” the gravel I am laying for my pavers or can it be buried within the item 4 gravel. I ask this because my item 4 will be already significantly below grade level and I am not sure I could dig another 6 inches down below where I intend to put the item 4 to cover a 4 inch pipe and still be able to have it slope adequately.
