Pitch Drainage Pipe System
The Pitch Drainage Pipe System is an infrastructure solution comprising perforated pipework, filter aggregate, geotextile and fittings, designed to collect water entering the sub-base of artificial-turf fields and outdoor sports areas and convey it to a controlled outlet. Pipe diameter and perforation, line spacing, installation level and gradient, collector connections, inspection and cleaning access, outlet capacity and surcharge risk are calculated from rainfall data, soil permeability and field geometry. The illustrated build-up is representative and is not a standard trench detail for every project. Pipe class, bedding and surround material, geotextile use and discharge point are defined by the approved drainage design.

Product and surface system questions
How are service life and warranty terms determined?
Service life depends on the selected product, usage intensity, climate, installation and maintenance. Request the written warranty duration and scope using the product code. This page does not promise a common service life or UV warranty for every product.
What evidence is needed for use in a children’s play area?
Suitability cannot be established from the turf appearance or product name alone. Intended use, the base, any impact-absorbing layer and infill must be assessed together. Request relevant test reports by product and system code; do not assume safety or compliance before the report scope is verified.
How is drainage assessed in wet conditions?
Drainage must be assessed using the selected surface’s water permeability together with the sub-base, slope and drainage outlets. Share the project location and existing base details to request the product datasheet and installation requirements. No universal promise of no ponding or a fixed drainage rate is made.
