      A:  You make a cut 8” from end of the month, between the ribbed sections and flip the female end to join the cut end. This will give a male end fitting to connect to your 90 degree corner.

          A:  Yes, this will work. Use a silicone to seal the connection area between the lengths. I would recommend using an expansion joint tape sku 50012 to allow for easy future grate removal. You would then need a multi pipe adaptor to feed into the sump? Sku 83705

              A:  Only one is required for each run. They are not required to join the lengths together as each length has a female end fitting on one end and male on the other and simply clip together. The convertor is required on the male end at the end of the run.

                A:  I returned this product because it didn’t fit my landscaping. It’s very shallow and it will not be able to keep up with the amount of water we have when it’s raining.
