Auckland has many surface water drainage issues, due to our wet climate. When a permanent surface is created, like a concrete driveway or patio, it creates the need to drain excess water off these permanent surfaces. If a drainage solution is not created, flooding and damage will occur, as well as creating potential safety issues.

Common areas without adequate drainage are garages, patios, garden walkways, swimming pools and outdoor entertainment areas.

The solution for draining these areas is through linear drainage channels. The surface water is directed to drainage channels which serve as a drainage point as well as a draining network.

Marley has the uPVC Shallow Channel System, which is ideal for cost-effective, easy residential installation.

The Shallow Channel range is ideal where there are minimum depth requirements. It is suitable for apartments, terraces, patios, decks, garden walkways, swimming pools and building entrances.

The system has a simple interlocking modular design which requires no corners, as each length can click into each other to create a 90 degree corner. The shallow channel utilises only four components to complete an installation.

There are four grating options available to suit the specific use and design requirements. Choose Marley for your next easy, cost-effective surface drainage solution.
