Underdrains comprise a length of perforated [[pipe]] embedded into a layer of [[reservoir aggregate]]. They are an optional component of [[bioretention]] systems, [[stormwater planters]], [[swales]] and [[soil cells]] used to support urban [[trees]]. Their design varies according to the drainage requirements of the installation, and the available maintenance access.  [[Underdrain]] perforated pipes should be located below the frost line to reduce the threat of ice clogging.
