Garden - Dry Well

How does the Easy Dry Well fix standing water in my backyard?

The Easy Dry Well is a high-performance landscape drainage solution designed to eliminate puddles and soggy spots in your lawn. By collecting surface runoff from downspouts or low-lying areas, it stores the water underground and allows it to naturally soak into the soil, keeping your grass dry and healthy.

What is the water capacity for home garden runoff?

Each unit holds 185 liters (48.8 gallons) of water. This is a massive upgrade over simple gravel pits, providing plenty of storage for heavy rain events so your flower beds and vegetable gardens don't become oversaturated or washed away.

Will this system connect to my existing garden pipes?

Yes, it is designed for DIY garden drainage projects. The unit fits standard 3", 4", and 6" PVC pipes, making it easy to connect your gutter downspouts directly to the well to prevent foundation damage and basement leaks.

Can I install the dry well under my backyard patio or walkway?

Absolutely. The Easy Dry Well is Class A load-rated, meaning it is safe for pedestrian traffic. You can discreetly install it under a paver patio, a garden path, or a play area without worrying about the ground collapsing or the system shifting.

What comes in the backyard drainage kit?

The kit includes 4 interlocking side panels, a heavy-duty lid, and a geotextile filter fabric. The fabric is essential for clog-free drainage, as it keeps dirt and roots out of the tank while letting filtered water nourish your backyard's groundwater table.

Can I use this with other garden drainage products?

Yes! For a complete backyard water management system, you can link the Easy Dry Well to catch basins or trench drains around your pool or patio. This creates a seamless underground network that keeps your entire outdoor living space dry.

How do I know how many dry wells my yard needs?

We offer an easy-to-use drainage calculator on our website. Just plug in the size of your roof or the area of your soggy lawn, and it will tell you exactly how many units are needed to handle the volume, saving you the guesswork and extra trips to the hardware store.

Is a dry well better than a French drain for a small garden?

While a French drain is great for moving water across a slope, a Dry Well is the best choice for compact yards where you need to get rid of water in a specific spot (like under a downspout). Using both together is the ultimate way to stop backyard flooding for good.

Is the material safe for my plants and soil?

Yes, the Easy Dry Well is made from eco-friendly, UV-resistant plastic that won't rust or rot. It’s a sustainable way to promote groundwater recharge, ensuring that rain stays in your garden to help your trees and plants thrive rather than running off into the street.
