Double Barrel System
BROWN Method Double Barrel Drain System
The BROWN Method Double Barrel System is a dual-pipe drainage solution designed for homes that face heavy water flow or repeated flooding. By using two parallel drain lines instead of one, this system moves water more efficiently and prevents backups during intense storms. It is especially useful for homes on slopes, in low-lying areas, or on properties with poor soil absorption.
This system works well alongside surface drains, French drains, or sump pumps.
Why Choose a Double Barrel System?
- Handles larger volumes of water during storms
- Reduces pressure around the home’s foundation
- Prevents water pooling near driveways, patios, and landscaping
- Enhances curb appeal by eliminating muddy or waterlogged areas
- Helps protect crawl space subfloors and beams from moisture
How It Works
The Double Barrel System uses two high-capacity lines installed side-by-side. Water enters through catch basins or inlet points and splits between the two pipes, reducing the risk of clogging or overload.
This system is ideal for properties with chronic drainage issues or homes that see water flowing toward the structure during heavy rains.
Installation Process
- Identify high-flow water paths across the yard.
- Excavate a dual-width trench with proper slope.
- Install two drain lines fitted with filtration protection.
- Connect lines to a discharge point or pump system.
- Backfill and complete surface restoration.
