I ran the channel drain out the side of the building and tied it in with my downspouts. I also tied in the small wash tub into that. Everything goes down hill and into a pit area in the scrub brush.
Some areas have restrictions on floor drains and how they're allowed to drain. I live in the country and they're not too strict out here. In reality I should not have the wash tub tied into this, but in order to do it properly I would've had to put in another septic system. I wasn't going to do that for the small amount of time I use the tub.
The channel drain comes out in the middle. My downspouts tie in at the front and back corners. I also tied in the wash tub with the small pipe.
I also tied in the floor drain from the original building into this.
Everything goes down hill into a low area in the woods.
