NDS Micro Channel Drains in pool application

Micro Channel Drains

Ideal for light flows, this effective solution comes as one integrated part, and channel sections snap together for a fast and easy install. Recessed grate openings facilitate runoff capture.

Unassembled Micro Channel™ Drain & Integrated Grate, 1-1/4 in. wide X 5 ft. long, Gray Plastic, with Coupling (NDS 8003, NDS 8481) for draining small flows of stormwater

Key Features

  • Micro Channel Drain and grate are one integrated piece; modular design makes it easy to customize layout
  • Sleek, narrow 1-1/4 in.-wide channel design features recessed grate and grate openings parallel to channel length
  • Micro Channel Drain with integrated grate are available in a variety of colors
  • Micro Channel Drain and integrated Grate made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) 
  • Treated with UV inhibitors to prevent fading and cracking

Applications

  • Captures light flows of surface water from pool and spa decks, concrete and paver patios, and walkways

  • Channel drains and trench drains are ideal for hardscapes to prevent mildew growth, concrete staining, and costly damage by capturing and conveying excess water for proper release downstream

  • The Micro Channel Drain and grate, as part of a complete drainage system, captures excess surface water and directs water away to connected drain pipes for proper release downstream or to an infiltration device

Installation & Maintenance

  • Micro Channel Drains connect together with couplings; create a water-tight connection using solvent-weld PVC glue

  • For cleaning and maintenance, install with Micro Channel cleanouts featuring removable tops along the length of the drain for access inside the Micro Channel Drain system

Materials & Sustainability

  • Channels and grates are made in the USA

  • Onsite stormwater management protects the watershed downstream, and limits excess runoff which can lead to negative impacts such as erosion, pollution, and flooding
