The drain pipe that passes around a building to eliminate the excess water and prevent accumulations is referred to as the French drain. The collection of water takes place by the drain which is then governed to a catchment area. A well installed quality French drain which is in good condition generally protects the home from in filtrations and humidity.It generally lasts for 30 years in an approximate manner though its span of life may be shortened in the following instances: the drain is poorly installed, poorly positioned, blocked or even nonexistent. During the times of heavy rainfall, water can penetrate and accumulate in the joints of the foundation or slab. One can also be affected by deposits of iron ochre that can clog the drain in a complete manner and obstruct it from functioning.

The general problem that is perceived with a dry well is that over the period of time solids, lint, scum and soap in waste water can block the pores of the surrounding soil and the openings of the walls of the well. As this gradual accumulation continues, water does not filter out of the well at a proper rate. In an eventual manner these clogs obstruct the water from draining and filtering into the groundwater. And when this occurs, it can become a huge subject of problem: Water can back up and begin to accumulate on the lawn which can cause fungus, mold and lawn disease. In various places, standing water can also the become den for mosquitoes who are the carriers of disease.

While majority of drywells rely on perforated walls to distribute water, the kinds of things that block them depend upon what one utilize the drywell for.

Septic Drywells –In Septic Drywells over the period of time, materials like lint and soap scum can start to accumulate on the walls of the drywell and begin to plug up the holes.

Runoff Drywells — The accumulation of natural debris can take place in the walls of the drywell which is generally utilized to take care of surplus water from downspouts, surface runoff etc.

But similarly to septic drywells, the factors of age and the amount of water that the well is expected to handle can make the internal cleaning a necessity.
