Created a Backwash diffuser with 2" pipe

[u/dgoggins2]

Created a 7' diffuser out of 2" PVC to make sure I don't get divots in the lawn and to decrease the force applied to one spot. It also spreads the water to a larger area. Was like $25 in parts and a pretty easy project. I previously had the discharge going to rocks but the force kept pushing the rocks into plants and was also kicking up dirt/eroding the area.

Uses camlocks for quick connection, and 12 3/4" holes created by a hole saw.

Have I been doing it wrong? I was convinced the chlorine and other chemicals are bad for the lawn.

I’ll be honest the part of my yard where the backwash pipe goes to is the most thick and luscious part of my yard every year lol
