Inlets are important elements of sewage systems. They allow sewage to be drained from floors and other surfaces, thus protecting them against flooding and water accumulation. In bathrooms, they offer great arrangement possibilities - they make it easier to implement minimalist designs and get rid of the shower tray. An example of such products are yard drains. When is it worth using them? Which brands offer high-quality drains?

What makes the ACO yard drain unique?
Yard drains are designed to drain rainwater and other sewage from horizontal surfaces outside buildings. Their use is recommended primarily on properties with hardened surfaces - e.g. paved yards and driveways, parking lots or communication routes. Yard drains may have the form of point or linear drainage - depending on the specificity of a given area and the possibility of installation.
An extensive range of yard drains can be found in the offer of the ACO brand - one of the leaders in the drainage industry. The ACO Self system is an advanced, modular technology that allows the installation of many drains in one channel. It consists of troughs and grates available in several variants, which can be freely combined, adapting them to factors such as surface load or terrain conditions.
ACO Self offers two types of troughs. The first one is made of polymer concrete, which makes it highly resistant to loads. A specially designed V-shaped cross-section facilitates water flow and self-cleaning of the trough. The second type includes plastic troughs. Their low weight makes them easier to transport and install, and also reduces the price. Their use is recommended in places such as terraces, patios or pedestrian paths. Plastic channels can also be used in front of the entrance to the building, along the driveway and at the entrance to the garage.
There are several types of grates available in the ACO Self system, differing in appearance and functional properties. These include the Voronoi cast iron grate. Its unique appearance makes it perfectly combined with the original architecture and contributed to winning the prestigious Red Dot award. The Microgrip model is also worth attention. It is made of polypropylene with Microgrip® technology. Thanks to its rough structure and numerous small protrusions, it ensures users' safety and effectively prevents slipping, even in humid conditions. In addition, ACO's offer includes cast iron and stainless steel or galvanized steel grates with ladder or grid arrangements, as well as slotted variants.
Application of ACO yard drains
The large diversity of individual components of the ACO Self system means that it can be used in many places with different specificities. Depending on the selection of the grate and trough, it can be used on terraces, driveways, sidewalks or garden arbors. The ACO Self yard drain is intended primarily for home use.
