Applications

The 4" Gray PVC Embellished Channel End Cap is for use with many applications to control water flow and aid in water collection for drainage systems.

Patios and Walkways

This end cap is particularly useful for patios and walkways to help divert rainwater out of the end of the system so water does not pool on the surface. This prevents damage to outdoor surroundings and maintains drainage systems in good working order.

Light Vehicular Traffic Areas

This end cap is also suitable for light vehicle traffic. It is robust enough to resist the presence of cars and trucks driving over it, and is appropriate for use in driveways or other lightly trafficked areas.

Landscaped Areas

In landscaped areas, like garden beds or around plants, the 4" Gray PVC Channel End Cap protects sensitive plants from being overwatered. It prevents water from getting where it doesn’t belong with maximum efficiency, without flooding.

Easy Installation Tips

The 4" Gray PVC Channel End Cap is easy to install. Here are some tips for a smooth running setup:

1. Clean the Channel: Prior to the installation of the end cap, the PVC channel should be cleaned of dirt, dust, or other debris.
2. Apply PVC Cement: To create a watertight seal, run a bead of PVC cement around the inside of the channel and on the end cap in a thin line.
3. Attach the End Cap: Place the end cap over the channel, making sure that it is properly aligned and snug.
4. Allow Time to Set: After setting, provide the cement time to cure. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions for bubble-free application.

Maintenance Tips

In order to preserve all the benefits contained in the system, it is important that the 4" Gray PVC Channel End Cap be maintained:

• Routine Inspections: Regularly inspect the end cap for visible signs of wear, cracks or damage. Regular inspection keeps the end cap doing its job and keeps water out of the system where it doesn’t belong.
• Cleaning the End Cap: Clean the end cap often. Take away any leaves, soil or debris that can block the water from moving out of it. This is important for keeping the drain clear and free flowing.
• Replacement When Necessary: If the end cap eventually gets cracked or damaged, replace it. Bad end caps can cause problems for the whole drainage system, so have them replaced in time before it's too late.
