Pipes should be manufactured in conformity with the latest standards by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA) or ASTM International.

*Perforated pipes should be continuously perforated, smooth interior HDPE (or equivalent material).
*Perforated pipes should be continuously perforated, smooth interior HDPE or PVC.
**Wherever possible pipes should be ≥ 200 mm internal diameter to reduce potential of freezing and to facilitate inspections and maintenance with a push camera.
**Wherever possible pipes should be ≥200 mm internal diameter to reduce potential of freezing and to facilitate push camera inspections and cleaning with jet nozzle equipment.
**Smooth interior facilitates inspection and maintenance activities; internal corrugations can cause cameras or hydrojetting apparatus to become snagged.

**A perforated pipe with many rectangular slots has better drainage characteristics than a pipe with similar open area provided by fewer circular holes <ref>Hazenberg, G., and U. S. Panu (1991), Theoretical analysis of flow rate into perforated drain tubes, Water Resour. Res., 27(7), 1411–1418, doi:10.1029/91WR00779.</ref>.

*Non-perforated pipes should be used for conveyance to and away from the facility, including [[overflow]]. It is good practice to extend the non-perforated pipe approximately 300 mm within the reservoir or practice to reduce the potential for native soil migration to clog the pipe at the interface.
*Non-perforated pipes should be used for conveyance of stormwater to and from the facility, including [[overflow]]. It is good practice to extend the solid pipe approximately 300 mm within the reservoir or practice to reduce the potential for native soil migration into the pipe.
