How do these installations drain?
California Ultimate Turf will design and build your installation and drainage to your specific needs. Large projects will call for perimeter drains and a drainage mat underneath the application. It is a half inch drainage mat that can collect and drain 16 gallons of water per minute /per foot. Stone base can handle about 3-5 gallons per minute/per foot. The drain mat also provides a superior rainfall evacuation rate which reduces the wait time before using the area after a steady rain. The product also enhances the G-Max performance of the turf. It does not however influence the ball action or cause injury to the players. We have learned in the industry that your installation is only as good as the foundation below it.
