when i install perforated pipe (just like the pipe or "tile" used in the video) on my own jobs, primarily construction, we use different methods to stop fine sediment from entering the pipe and clogging it, making it useless. I noticed in the video the pipe is installed directly into the soil, what stops it from filling up with dirt, and sediment and no longer working? thanks.

What is the common distance between two rows of drain tiles?

[Hidan7000]

@mariusivan48098 If you don't know that you shouldn't be tiling!

[mariusivan48098]

@Hidan7000 I asked because I intend to. But if you like to keep it to yourself that's ok.

Is there a chance the drain tile could get caught on a plow and damaged?

Do you leave markers, or map the location? Does the Farmer rely on his memory to remember where the drain tile is? I wouldn't want to see the drain tile ripped out during next years plowing.

@AviationMetalSmith Usually deep enough to miss plowing

[merjamika]

Am I to understand that a custom Drainage contractor with a Drainage plow charges 50 cents US/foot to install 4 inch pipe?

[ureonmyhitlist]

@merjamika Yeah.
