Downspout Filter

Installation Instructions &

Maintainence Owners Manual

1) Mark the Location

Mark the location that you will be

excavating for the Downspout Filter. Make

sure that the back edge of the unit is behind

your downspout outlet. Downspout filter may

be located away from foundation if desired

by extending the downspout.

2) Excavate the Hole

Excavate the hole 18" deep. You may need to elevate the

Downspout Filter in order for the water to properly travel

to the modular storage basin using gravity.

3) Add Gravel and Level

Place a 4" layer of gravel underneath the Down-

spout Filter and level side-to-side and front to

back. The gravel will allow the small quantity of

water remaining in the filter to percolate into the

surrounding soil.

*Please note that the Downspout Filter unit

does not come with percolation holes. If

desired, drill two 1/8" holes in the bottom of

the unit to allow any water remaining in the

Downspout Filter after a rainfall to slowly

percolate through the filter, preventing

stagnant water from residing in the filter.

4) Backfill on All Sides

Backfill on all sides of the filter. Be sure to leave the

outlet open so that you can connect the drainage pipe.

5) Dig the Trench

When the unit is securely installed, dig a trench from

the Downspout Filter to the Modular Storage Basin. Keep

the trench depth at the same level as the Downspout

Filter hole and line with gravel. This will help the per-

colated water from the bottom of the filter travel away

from the foundation. (In order for water to flow correctly

from the Downspout Filter into the Modular Storage

Basin, a minimum 1" downward elevation change is

recommended for every 10' run of drainage tile.)

6) Install the Drainage Tile

Install 3" or 4" non-perforated drainage tile securely

to the barbed outlet on the Downspout Filter and finish

backfilling around the unit.

7) Run Drainage Tile to Basin

Place drainage tile over the exposed liner

and geotextile material. Hide the drainage

tile by using rocks and/or boulders.

8) Install the Filter Net into the Unit
