The downspouts lead to a perforated pipe underground that led to a pop up drain out by my front curb.
My gutters go into the ground where do they go.
Just connect the tool to your hose and you are good to go.
A diverter will help direct the water back into the gutter where it belongs.
I had these on my property when i bought my house last september.
Occasionally downspouts are fitted in such a way that lets the water come out of the downspout to spread into the garden with the use of an extender.
Debris flowing down the downspout drain leaves from gutters can block floor drains or even the main building sewer line leading to sewage backups into the structure.

They attach to the downspouts on your home and move water away from the foundation underground.

Some houses use downspouts that direct the flow of water downhill or down a slanted driveway.
To do this i cut the black corrugated pipe added a t and aimed the pipe upwards to the downspout.
They might also lead to a pop up drain on your property somewhere downhill.
Make sure the open end is pointed away from the house.
The pop up drains on both sides of my house were overgrown with grass.
Although you can t see into these drains cleaning them is similar to a process used to clear debris.
Fasten a diverter with a couple of sheet metal screws to the top of the outside edge of the gutter.
If they came with the house go out and do a quick double check.
It s based on the same principle as the blower attachment i talked about earlier a long tube allowing you to reach the gutter from the ground.
However there are many good reasons why people might bury a downspout.
Others have vertical pipes that either connect to a drain or run directly into the ground itself.
They might just lead to a length of perforated pipe in the ground and then drain out into the surrounding soil.
