Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Site Preparation: Excavate the area according to the required dimensions, ensuring a level base.
- Geotextile Installation: Line the excavation with the provided geotextile, ensuring it covers the sides and base, overlapping edges.

- Backfilling: Cover the assembled crates with the geotextile, and then backfill with appropriate material, ensuring not to damage the geotextile.
Compatibility
The Spudulica Soakaway Kit is compatible with most soil types, though drainage efficiency depends on soil permeability. Ensure proper soil testing before installation.
Care
- Regularly inspect the surrounding area for any signs of surface water buildup.
- Check for any blockages at the inlet and outlet points.
- Remove any debris that may accumulate on the surface around the installation.
- Avoid heavy machinery or excessive loads on the installation area after setup.
