!Roof Downspout Disconnection
!Roof Downspout Disconnection
|Simple downspout disconnection requires a minimum flow path length across the pervious area (at least 5 metres) and suitable soil conditions. If the flow path length is less than 5 metres and soils are hydrologic soil group (HSG) C or D, roof downspouts should be directed to another LID practice such as a rainwater harvesting system, soakaway, swale, bioretention area or perforated pipe system.

|Disconnected downspouts should discharge to a gradual slope that conveys runoff away from the building. The slope should be between 1% and 5%. Grading should discourage flow from reconnecting with adjacent impervious surfaces

|Bioretention should be separated from the seasonally high water table by a minimum of one (1) metre to ensure groundwater does not intersect the filter bed.

|Designers should also check whether maximum future tree canopy height in the bioretention area will not interfere with existing overhead phone and power lines.

|A limiting design factor is that the maximum flow path length across the impermeable surface should be less than 25 m.

|Sand or other granular materials should not be applied as anti-skid agents during winter operation because they can quickly clog the system. Winter maintenance practices should be limited to plowing, with de-icing salts applied sparingly

|Load bearing capacity of the building structure and selected roof deck need to be sufficient to support the weight of the soil, vegetation and accumulated water or snow, and may also need to support pedestrians, concrete pavers, etc.

|Underground cisterns should be placed in areas without vehicular traffic. Tanks under roadways, parking lots, or driveways must be designed for the live loads from heavy trucks, a requirement that could significantly increase construction costs.
