Storm water/downpipe connections.

Hi all,

We are in the last couple of weeks of our build and today the drains were connected to stormwater. Before today we had noticed that the grate/pipes drains in the ground we’re slightly misaligned with the square drainpipes. We assumed some sort of S bend connector would be used to connect the drains and pipes.

However, the stormwater guys have been today and all they have done is just pop these grates on the pipes in the ground- I assume to help direct the flow of the water. It looks to us like if there was a heavy down pour, half would go into the drain and half would just rush out onto the ground behind the pipes.

I just wanted to know if what they have done is standard practice? Do these photos look ok?

Thanks

Kelsey
