A Filter for Every Downspout
Whether you have small or large downspouts, French Drain Man has you covered. Our leaf filters come in three convenient sizes:
2x3: Perfect for most standard downspouts in the US.
3x4: Designed for larger downspouts, often found on commercial buildings or homes with extensive roof areas.
4-inch Round: Specifically crafted to fit round downspouts, including those on older or historic homes with multiple layers of paint.
Available in both black and white, these filters seamlessly blend with your existing gutters while providing superior protection against leaves, twigs, and other debris.
Introducing the 4-Inch Line
Our new 4-inch line of leaf filters is compatible with any 4-inch pipe, making them perfect for both thick-walled and thin-walled systems. They're designed to fit snugly in the center of the pipe, eliminating the need for glue, silicone, or tape - making installation a breeze.

Prevent Clogs: Keep your downspouts flowing freely, even during heavy rainfall.

In FL you would be cleaning that rain water harvesting screen after every rain. ☔️ Awesome video keep em coming!
We’re in Canada and installed your system after redoing our gutters last year, complete with an emitter and basin. It has been working perfectly. We used to have severe water problems in the basement because the water from the gutters, now properly channeled through the downspouts, was overwhelming our weeping tile now and building up against the foundation, eventually seeping in through the windows. Burying the downspouts with your system resolved these issues. Your videos have been incredibly educational over the years, so when we tackled this project with our landscaper, I was well-prepared. Now, he’s using your products with other customers this spring. Your Canadian reseller was great to work with and a genuinely helpful person. 👍
great video
Thank you
New home and the builder installed 5” gutters: replaced them with 6”.
With guards on the new gutters my next step is to route the rain water away from the house and to the drainage avenues along with the street in the front of the house.
About 25’ x2 for the front.
The rear has only 10’ to the discharge spots.
I will be ordering these products I need from the French Drain Man
A landscaping company buried my front gutter and installed that cheap-ass Flex Grate. I cut some cheap Plexi glass and slid it in to close the opening. A quick fix, but your product looks of course way better. I've been searching for years. In the past I've used Gutterworks' downspout debris filter and thought it was pretty good, but it has to be mounted through the siding and the fine screen needs regular cleaning.
That's why we made the product that we made. Because nobody answered the bell. Everything hit failure modes.

Love this channel , come to MN
Follow up from my shorts comment: Great videos, learning so much! Do you have a video about back flow prevention when releasing into a creek area when the water level rises?

Video idea - you come to my home in Wisconsin and bury my downspouts? 😜
Wish we could

So the idea is a leaf filter on the downspout and then a catch basin a few feet away to clean out shingle debris?
💯
They need to tell us how much water is flowing in these examples. It’s easy. Count how many seconds it takes to fill a 5 gallon bucket.

If I don't have any trees near my house can I get away with not having this, but still installing downspout basins to catch debris off the shingles?
It's been my experience over my 38 years as a contractor that leaves sometimes blow in from city blocks. I've seen houses with no trees still have leaves in their gutter systems. A clogged downspout is more of a headache than it's worth. If you don't have very many leaves, then you shouldn't have to clean them out that often. I'm always going to install a good leaf filter because it's not worth the risk of a flooded basement or crawl space.
What is the deepest depth for a pop up emitter
Shallow, no more than one riser.
Will the white color units turn yellow over time?
No, sir, they have UV protection.
Are planning to sell this on Amazon in the near future?
We already do. This is our second year on Amazon. However, Amazon adds a lot of cost, so it's cheaper to buy on our website.

42" deep
Hi, Can you use your 3"Heavy Duty Solid Corrugated Pipe for downspout connection under a concrete walkway? (Canadian Climate) Thanks in advance
czcams.com/video/ekh_OmlAJJo/video.htmlsi=lsp283bnswO7D2-5
Can you confirm if this is the right approach out in northern IL? I've got 3 downspouts that I plan on tying together with solid corrugated pipe. I'll be running a 3" slotted corrugated pipe for the french drain next to it. I'll be including your catch basin for the roof run off/organic material. Is there a point where I should transition the downspout solid pipe to a slotted pipe? I watched a number of your videos that mention using a knife cut (slotted) pipe in part of the run to help the run off leech out. Or is it fine to run it completely solid until both pipes terminate at the end of the run? Thanks for the videos!
Three-inch pipe has 56% less water in it than four-inch, so we don’t do a leach pipe at the end of a three-inch line. We do not tape the pop-up emitter on so that the water can leak out at that fitting. And we put stone around the pop-up.
@@FRENCHDRAINMAN Thank you sir! Do you think it would be better to tie all the 3" into 4" mains (1solid for gutters, 1 slotted for french drains) and then run it down to the popup emitter (with a mini drywell around it). Can I get away with tying both 3" gutter and 3" french drains into the same 4" main (not sure if it should be solid or slotted)?
Is your website down? I'm trying to order some parts. Cant get the site to load
A million thanks, brother. My IT team is on top of it. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Back up
Thanks again!
Tin? I’d be willing to bet that’s aluminum.
Yes, when it freezes up with ice, it expands and stays bent.
