Cut inside corners first (example B). Cut off approximately 8 inches of channel and cut channel at a 45 degree angle as shown. Lay corners in place and nail once to the footing.

Outside corners require no special cut. A little gap in the channel of this corner will not cause the system to fail. A little rock can be thrown in the cap or the corner can be cut at a 45 degree angle as shown (example C).

Lay all other pieces in place. overlapping 2 bubbles and nailing to the footing once on overlap and once in center of 6 foot lengths.
NOTE:
Make sure the system overlaps the footing onto the 4 inch rock sub-grade at least 2 inches next to the sump container (example D) or day light drain for a minimum of 2 lineal feet of the footing. If it doesn’t a separate piece. with the channel cut off, will be need to create the overlap (example E).
Perforating the sump container will be necessary if no interior footing drain is installed in the 4 inch rock sub-grade. If the footing is wider than the HYDRO CHANNEL for stretches over 30 feet. a separate 2 foot piece with the channel cut off needs to be installed at least every 20 feet to create at least a 2 inch overlap onto the rock sub-grade (example F).
