Product Information
Full details
The DEK-DRAIN Vela A15 Mini Sump Kit is designed for homeowners and drainage installers looking to bridge the gap between 50mm surface outlets and standard 100mm underground drainage systems. This kit provides a reliable way to manage runoff while preventing debris from entering the main drainage lines. While the kit offers exceptional versatility with its adjustable outlet, users must ensure the 100mm pipe infrastructure is correctly aligned before beginning the installation to accommodate the sump depth.

FAQs
What does A15 load class mean?
A15 load class indicates the drainage system is designed for pedestrian areas and light vehicle traffic, such as driveways and residential paths.
Can I use this with pipes other than 100mm?
The sump outlet is specifically designed for 100mm underground drainage pipe compatibility.
How often should I clean the leaf guard?
Frequency depends on the surrounding foliage, but a visual check every 3-6 months is recommended.
Does the kit include the drainage channel?
No, this is a sump kit intended to connect to existing or separately purchased drainage channels.
What is the purpose of the dip-tube trap?
The dip-tube trap holds a small amount of water to create a seal, preventing sewer or drain smells from escaping through the surface channel grate.
Troubleshooting
Water leaking from the connection between the channel and the sump
Check that the rubber gasket is correctly seated and that all 4 screws are tightened evenly.
Slow drainage from the channel
Remove the leaf guard and clear any accumulated silt, leaves, or debris.
Outlet is difficult to rotate
Ensure no plastic burrs are present and that the rotation mechanism is clean of grit or construction debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation Steps:
- Position the trapped sump unit under the channel outlet.
- Utilize the provided rubber gasket and screws to create a watertight seal between the sump and the channel underside.
- Adjust the rotational outlet to the desired angle to meet your 100mm underground pipework.
- Secure the connection and test for water flow.
Compatibility:
- Designed for 50mm/2 inch channel outlets.
- Compatible with standard 100mm/4 inch underground drainage pipe systems.
Care and Maintenance:
To maintain optimal flow, remove the channel grate periodically to access the sump. Lift out the leaf guard, clear any accumulated debris, and rinse the trap with water. Ensure the rubber seal remains free of grit during inspection to maintain a tight fit.
