where does a foundation weeping tile drain to?

Answer 1

Mine empties near the ditch in front of the house, about 200 feet away. On wet days the water flow is quite high. Dry days there is no water at all. My water softener also sends the backflush water into the same pipe.

Answer 3

it can drain into few places, either into ditch or culvert around the area of your home below grade. it can also be directed into the city's sewer system. and finally the tile know as "big o" situated around the footing of your house, is sometimes routed back into a sump pump in the basement, only to be recycled back into it again, this, in most cases happens in flat lots with very little drainage
