So the previous owner of our home neglected to install any type of drain when he had the pool decking installed. Absolutely inexplicable; I know. It doesn't rain often in AZ but our monsoon storms can be nasty. I'm looking at the various deco and channel drains on the market and two concerns consistently surface:
1. These pvc drains can crack due to age or regular foot traffic.
2. Most are one piece, which requires a full replacement when damaged. There is no option to repair sections.
3. These drains don't seem to offer a simply method for cleaning accumulated dirt/sand. This is baffling. There should be an opening on one end to feed a hose through.
My question:
Is there a channel drain on the market that addresses these concerns? I'm envisioning a two piece version with a removable top for easy replacement. And one with an opening for cleaning.
Thanks!
