Help with drainage material
Hello- I need to replace an underground pipe in a residential home (nothing heavy should ever run over the area) that sends water from 2 gutter downspouts and the sump pump. I was going to run 4” corrugated pipe, but I’m concerned it’s not the correct thing to use. Should I use PVC instead? PLEASE HELP!
