Features

  • Works with a complete drainage system to release collected stormwater runoff and standing water to a discharge point before it causes costly property damage. Provides collected water a point of release at water-safe areas downstream and away from structures, erosion-prone landscapes, and poor drainage areas
  • Connects to 3 in. & 4 in. sewer and drain fittings; connects to other pipe types using appropriate adapters. Releases collected water up to 40 GPM. Supports pedestrian traffic including lawn tractors, when properly installed
  • Outside flange prevents grass from growing over the cover
  • Cap, or cover, pops up as high as 1 in. once water pressure builds; closes as flow diminishes. Flat profile design reduces trip hazard posed by open drain; closed position keeps emitter flush to the ground and safe from lawn mower blades
  • Comes with one Pop-Up Drainage Emitter . Hassle-free limited lifetime warranty guarantees the NDS product is free from defectsor well replace it

  • Still doing an excellent job after ~3.5 years
Size: 3-inch & 4-inch
1) This product provides great value for your money. It helps so much with yard drainage and costs very little. 2) It's so durable. I've been monitoring it for about 3.5 years now, and it has withstood all the sun, heat, and thunderstorms nature has thrown at it. Also, it has never caught the blade of my lawn mower, which has probably passed over it around 100 times now. 3) The rounded interior contours, internal ribs, and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) construction contribute to the overall strength of the product. 4) It's so simple to install if you've done your measurements in advance. 5) Cleaning the product is easy, although I've almost never had to over the years. But it's just as effortless to remove this product from the pipe as you might expect for something that stays embedded in your lawn all year long. 6) The emitter pops up just like it's supposed to during heavy storms that cause copious drainage. When installed properly, this product performs extremely well. ... show more

  • Perfect Solution for Lawn Drainage – Easy Install & Works Flawlessly!
Size: 3-inch & 4-inch
I recently installed the Pop-Up Drainage Emitter as part of my yard's drainage system, and I couldn't be happier with the results. It’s incredibly easy to install and fits perfectly with standard 4-inch drain pipes. The pop-up top works just as advertised—only opens when there’s water flow, keeping debris and critters out when not in use. What I really appreciate is the low-profile design. It blends in nicely with the lawn and doesn’t get in the way of mowing or foot traffic. Even after several heavy rainstorms, the emitter has performed flawlessly, preventing any pooling or flooding in problem areas. If you’re looking for a simple, effective, and durable solution for lawn drainage, this is it. Highly recommended! ... show more

  • Solid product. Does not work with Schedule 40 pipe without an adapter.
Size: 3-inch & 4-inch
So far, so good... seems to do what it's supposed to do, and, after getting the correct adapter, was easy to install. Solid construction, seems like it will be durable, and I installed it in an area that won't be mowed, so I don't have to worry about a lawn mower chopping it up. :) One important question to resolve, though. There seems to be some confusion about exactly what type and size of pipe this will fit. Not all PVC pipe is the same -- when a pipe is advertised as a 3 inch or 4 inch pipe, the stated dimension is usually referring to the inside diameter of the pipe (i.e., the hole), not the outside diameter. Different grades of pipe have different wall thickness, so the outside pipe diameter changes depending on the grade or "schedule" of pipe you have. For this item, this is important because it is designed to either fit inside a hub fitting, or slip over the outside of a pipe. To resolve this, I contacted the manufacturer and this is exactly what they told me: "The NDS Pop-up Emitter fits on sewer and drain pipe and not schedule 40 pipe. NDS part #3P16 is an adapter that will convert schedule 40 to sewer and drain. Place the adapter on top of the pipe and then place the Emitter on the adapter." The "sewer and drain" pipe referred to is a lighter pipe with thinner walls than Schedule 40 pipe. This pop-up emitter will not work with schedule 40 pipe and fittings. However, it's easy enough (and not expensive) to get an adapter. Doing so worked for me. ... show more

  • They work great!
Size: 3-inch & 4-inch
My contractor used cheap and ill fitting grates for the drainage system. Rain just pushed them out and down the steep hill. These fit tight. The pop up valve stays closed until it rains. Grass and critters can't get in!

  • Well made

This pop-up replacement is much stronger and better quality than the original and fits perfectly. I’m going to be proactive and replace the rest of mine.
