I think I'm going back to 2" pipe for the full distance. It will be much easier to get that under the sidewalk.


Typical city government.
They originate a problem by not have a stormwater collection system,
then make it expensive and burdensome for those forced to pump stormwater away to prevent foundation problems.

Since you already announced your will be installing a second pump, reconsider going back to 2 inch.

Bigger pipes are cheaper per gallon moved over a decade.

You or the next owner of the property are going to be pumping for decades.

The multiple thousands of $ you had to spend on the foundation stabilization was a penalty for not pumping earlier.

Ancient fortresses had good stormwater drainage because they did not want their walls to collapse.

Before cannons how did attackers get walls to collapse?

Look up what “Sapper” originally meant.
