Send us Fan MailEver wonder why some yards bounce back from heavy rain while others stay muddy for days? The secret lies in drainage technology, and as our conversation with Joe Zellerman of Hydraway reveals, not all drainage systems are created equal.Did you know the iconic Field of Dreams baseball field—site of MLB's most-watched game ever—relies on Hydraway drainage? When a deluge of three to four inches of rain fell the night before this historic game, groundskeepers were still able to mow the next morning. The system worked so efficiently they needed to add a second pump station just to keep up with the water removal.Traditional drainage systems use pipes with small slit holes that only offer about 5% open area, easily becoming clogged with sediment while actually holding water rather than moving it. Hydraway's revolutionary cavity design changes the game completely by allowing water to drain through all sides simultaneously. With percolation rates of 18-28 inches per hour per square foot, it's no wonder professional sports venues trust this system for their multimillion-dollar fields.For homeowners tired of soggy yards and mud puddles that tear up under the lawnmower, Hydraway offers the same professional-grade solution used at the highest levels of sports. Whether you're a passionate lawn enthusiast who puts lines in your grass every weekend or simply want a yard that drains properly after rain, this conversation reveals why moving water—not holding it—is the key to landscape drainage success. Check out our full 30-minute interview to learn even more about how Hydraway transforms golf courses and other challenging drainage environments.Support the showCheck out Michael's book, "Crawl Space Repair Myths-Busted" now available on Amazon!Schedule a consultation: https://buymeacoffee.com/csninja/extrasNeed help: https://crawlspaceninja.com or https://supply.crawlspaceninja.com
