One of the best ways to remove rainwater is through the use of residential storm drainage. A storm drain allows the excess of water to be collected and to be removed in various properties. It allows paved streets, sidewalks, roofs and parking lots to not be damaged by torrential rains and powerful storms. Storm drains vary in design and size. Some are designed as dry wells for large city system while others are designed to move rain water to rivers and streams. The dry well system moves water from street gutters, motorways and busy roads through a drainage system.
The two types of residential storm drainage in St. Pete, Fl 33704
There are basically two types of storm water drainage, namely the grated and the side inlets. Side inlets are located in a curb and they rely on an opening under the backstone or the lintel to collect and dispose of rain water. They are often depressed in a channel of the drainage in order to improve capacity of water capture. The other type of inlet is the grated inlet. This is based on gratings in order to prevent people, large objects and debris from falling to the storm drain. It also prevents vehicles from hitting the holes. The grate bars are spaced in order to allow the flow of water. Small objects fall through the hole and can cause clogging and that is why the grates are spaced evenly. Storm drains found in roads are required to be strong enough to support incoming traffic.
In terms of residential homes, both grated and side inlets can be used. The grates in grated inlets are also spaced in order to prevent debris while at the same time prevents children and home owners from falling through the hole.
Piping and outlet
Residential storm drainage requires piping in order to remove storm water. Basically, there is piping found below the drainage. The pipes have various cross sectional designs and shapes. The most common ones are made in rectangular, bread loaf, oval, inverted, circular or square shaped. The drainage system often includes waterfalls, stairways and balconies. The pipes are made of either bricks, high density plastic, steel or concrete. Today, most homes use PVCs since they can prevent clogging and they last longer than in any other material.
Once the water passes through the pipes, it exits through a point of discharge. Usually, the output is in a lake reservoir, sea, canal or the ocean. In typical residential storm drainage, the water is moved through either dry wells or central drainage. It can also be collected through the use of rain barrels. Storm drainage can be interconnected through other sewer systems through the use of slotted pipes. The first flush of water is extremely pungent and dirty. Storm water is contaminated with various bacteria and germs which are collected in streets and in homes. The first flush of water in residential drainage can also be filled with pesticide from gardens or heavy metals. They should not be consumed since they can cause health issues.
