Terrier man 38 Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 Well people i was just wondering if anyone on here has a dry soak for there kennels..? If so how do you find it? Barrel in ground full of rocks and stones what type of rocks ar you using or just any ol rocks? Is the base of it open so that the water runs completely out into the earth? finally does it back up at all? bearing in mind its just for the drainage off the kennels..

Waz 4,262 Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 My kennels work on this principal, 100mm waste pipe going down to rubble soak away, water runs out of kennel through grid, then to 100mm waste pipe with fine mesh to catch hair etc, give that a tap out after I scrub the kennels out. Not long done new kennel base that has a inspection lid with a trap for hair etc, will get the rest done someday Quote Link to post Share on other sites
