Find out morePerfect for surface water drainage in a variety of domestic and light-duty traffic applications, this ACO RainDrain Domestic Channel Drain is lightweight and versatile. The high-quality channel drain has been crafted from Vienite, ACO's own recycled polymer concrete, for strength and reliability.
With a galvanised steel grating that is visually appealing and withstands corrosion, this channel drain has been UKCA and CE marked and fully certified to BS EN 1433:2002 with an A15 load class, making it ideal for use on domestic drives, pedestrian areas, patios, paths, block paving and garage thresholds.
Installation is easy and efficient with the interlocking process, saving you both time and effort. The sealant grove creates a watertight element, and the profile improves the speed of water and allows self-cleansing.

Question:
can you connect multiple lengths of this grate together to create a long run and if so, are the joins fully waterproof to avoid leaking at the joints?
Answer:
The channels can be connected to create a long run, however, they are not waterproof.
Upon installing them you would create a concrete trench so even if there's any water leakage it should be fine.

how do I select the grate? or is that sold separately?
Answer:
This comes with the galvanised grating. There are other 'get the look' gratings available to purchase as well.

Does this channel include the grate ? If so can you confirm which type?
Answer:

Hi does this system do corner units?
Answer:
