As one of the longest running and most prevalent synthetic turf designers in the Chicago area, we are familiar will all brands of flat drains. In addition, we also utilize flatdrains for natural grass drainage. We are very impressed with the Hydraway product line for both synthetic turf and natural grass drainage applications. We have found it to possess much better drainage parameters AND to be much more economical than other flatdrain products.
The reason we use Hydraway 2000 can be summed up in two words, strength and permeability. When we use Hydraway 2000 under our fields, we know that we are using a material that has superior compression strength combined with higher permeability and water flow rates than other products we have used in the past.
For several years, we have specified Hydraway products as part of the subsurface drainage design under natural and synthetic athletic fields, utilizing both horizontal and vertical applications. We could not be more pleased with the high quality and performance of the products.
The high in-flow and high compressive strengths make Hydraway the ideal drainage solution. This quality product backed by superior customer service makes it easy to give Hydraway Drainage Systems our repeat business.
French drains were a major innovation when they first became popular in the nineteenth century. Their trenches, gravel, and perforated pipes made it easier than ever before to drain water from outdoor areas. Today, however, French drains often struggle with clogging and water removal. Hydraway presents a modern drainage solution that never fails.
The existing 4″ perforated pipe drainage system had previously failed. The contractor had to remove 17,000 feet of failed system before construction. Since the location often experiences microburst rain events, Hydraway 12” was chosen to be installed horizontally to maximize the best drainage. The design was completed in-house by Hydraway. We put the drainage system on 13’ spacing and 7’ spacing in the tarp drop area.
