About This Product
The Pop-Up Drainage Emitter with Elbow is designed to effectively direct water away from structures, erosion-prone areas, and poorly-drained landscapes, releasing it downstream. The system connects to 3 in. sewer and drain pipes or 3 in. triple-wall pipes. When water pressure builds, the cap "pops up" up to 1 inch, discharging water at a flow rate of up to 56 GPM, then closes as the water flow subsides. The cap remains closed when not in use to prevent debris and rodents from entering the system and causing blockages. Its flat profile blends seamlessly into the landscape, and its rounded contours help reduce the risk of clogging. The emitter features internal ribs for added durability, a flange design to prevent turf overgrowth, and a weep hole to drain water in the elbow and prevent stagnation or freezing during cold weather. Made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) for the cap and cover, and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) for the elbow, the Pop-Up Drainage Emitter is part of a comprehensive drainage system for effective stormwater management.
Highlights
- Directs collected water to a downstream discharge point
- Ideal for installation at the lowest point in drainage systems, away from buildings and landscaped areas
- Elbow connects to 3 in. sewer and drain pipes, 3 in. triple-wall pipes, and other pipe types with the appropriate adapters
- Cap pops up to 1 inch as water pressure builds and closes when flow diminishes; stays closed when not in use to block debris and rodents
- Releases up to 56 GPM of water
- Supports pedestrian traffic and lawn tractors when installed properly
- Flange design prevents grass growth over the emitter cover
- Small weep hole in the elbow helps drain residual water, preventing stagnation or freezing in cold conditions
- Flat profile design minimizes trip hazards, keeping the emitter flush with the ground to protect from lawn mower blades
- Works seamlessly with other drainage components to channel water away and protect property from damage
- Easy installation with the Pop-Up Emitter cover at ground level, connecting to 3 in. sewer and drain or triple-wall pipes
- Includes one Pop-Up Drainage Emitter and attached elbow
- Made from UV-resistant HDPE and PVC for durability and to prevent cracking or fading
- Use adapters (1241) to connect to 3 in. & 4 in. single-wall corrugated pipes or 4 in. Schedule 40 pipes
- Ideal for larger drainage solutions when multiple Pop-Up Drainage Emitters are used
- Works with a Catch Basin Drain, Low-Profile Adapter, Channel Drain, or Trench Drain to capture and convey water
- Combine with a Flo-Well Dry Well System or EZ Drain Gravel-Free French Drain System to detain and slowly release excess water
- Supports onsite stormwater management, protecting the downstream watershed and reducing erosion, pollution, and flooding
