What is a slot drain system?
A slot drain is a linear drain that is installed in the ground and is used to filter off groundwater. The main difference between a slot drain and other more traditional channel drainage systems is that a slot drain does not include any type of grating. Fundamentally, the slot drain is another type of trench drain or channel drain system.
