Trench drains are always a great option when it comes to draining outdoor areas and driveways of Central California residences, industrial establishments, and commercial properties. When designed and built correctly, not only does it provide a more efficient way to manage excess water<\/a> in certain areas of your property; it can also be a great way to improve the aesthetics of your landscaping. Unfortunately, not all Central California residents, business owners, and industrial complex managers are fully aware of such systems. It would be best to learn more about this type of landscape drainage system and how you can use it in your own property.<\/p>\n<\/div> Trench drains<\/em>, in their simplest form, are nothing more than man-made channels that are used to convey excess water from one area of a given property to another area. It is one of the simplest forms of drainage systems<\/a> that have been around for many years. Generally speaking, a trench is a long albeit narrow ditch. It is wide enough to convey as much water as possible from one area to another, but it should not be too wide that people and machines may no longer be able to use the space occupied by the trench drain<\/a>.<\/p>\n This drainage system is typically used on driveways and sidewalks as well as areas directly under a roof edge that doesn\u2019t have gutters or any other area where water has the tendency to collect. On that note, you can always look at a trench drain to be a lot similar to the gutter in your roof. Of course, the only difference is that trench drains are located in the ground.<\/p>\n Some Central and Northern California residents also employ trench drains to help protect some parts of their property that may be at risk of soil erosion. This is especially true for those who may live in meticulously-landscaped properties where erosion is always an issue that can negatively impact the overall aesthetics of the property.<\/p>\n<\/div> There are also those who use trench drains as an adjunct to their existing sump pump systems. In such cases, the trench drain can easily channel water away from low-lying areas especially near the foundation of the house. The same system can also divert water that may collect from a certain area of the property into one\u2019s rain garden.<\/p>\n<\/div>An Overview of our California Trench Drains<\/h2>\n
