NDS Spee-DCatch Basins

The NDS Spee-D Basin is a compact 6-inch round catch basin designed for residential drainage applications. It excels at collecting water from small lawn areas, landscape beds, and as a connection point in Spee-D Channel drain systems. The basin also works with pop-up emitters to create high-capacity discharge points.

Spee-D Basins come in two configurations: single outlet and double outlet. The single outlet basin (model 101) has one 3"/4" locking outlet, ideal for simple drainage runs. The double outlet basin (model 201) has two opposing 3"/4" locking outlets for systems requiring multiple pipe connections or through-flow configurations.

The Spee-D Basin features NDS's locking outlet design where the outlet adapter twists and locks into place. This creates a secure, watertight connection without the need for glue or fasteners. The locking mechanism also allows for easy disconnection if future modifications are needed.

Yes, Spee-D Basins are specifically designed to integrate with the NDS Spee-D Channel drain system. The basin connects inline with channel sections to provide strategic collection points, outlet connections, or transitions in your drainage layout. This integration creates a complete, cohesive drainage system.

Spee-D Basins use 6-inch round grates available in several styles: standard round grate in multiple colors (green, black, gray), atrium-style grate with raised dome to prevent leaf clogging, and decorative options. Grates snap into place and can be secured with optional screws.

The Spee-D Basin combined with the NDS 6" Pop-Up Emitter creates a high-capacity discharge point. Connect the drainage pipe to the basin inlet, place the pop-up emitter on top of the basin, and water will discharge when system pressure builds. This provides more flow capacity than a standard pop-up emitter alone.

Yes, NDS offers Spee-D Basin risers that stack onto the basin body to increase overall depth. Each riser adds height to accommodate deeper installations or to match final grade elevations. Risers nest securely and maintain the round profile for grate compatibility.

Spee-D Basins are manufactured from high-impact styrene plastic. This material provides excellent durability, chemical resistance, and UV stability while remaining lightweight for easy handling and installation. The material will not rust, rot, or corrode over time.

The Spee-D Basin locking outlets accept both 3-inch and 4-inch drain pipe. The universal outlet design accommodates either size, giving you flexibility in connecting to existing drainage systems or specifying new pipe runs based on your flow requirements.

Install Spee-D Basins at low points in your lawn where water collects, at the ends of swales or drainage channels, near downspout discharge areas, at property line collection points, and as inline collection points in Spee-D Channel runs. Position basins where they can effectively intercept surface water flow.
