Hello, I have a roof to which a rain gutter is to be attached. The rain gutter still needs to be connected to a drainpipe. The house has two sides - a front and a back. On each side, the roof slopes down and the gable is in the middle of the roof. There is already a rain gutter at the back. I would like to direct the water from the front to the back because I have the possibility to collect the water in a rainwater tank at the back and use it in the garden.
The distance to be covered is about 20 meters, the length of the house from front to back. I would like to guide the water through a drainpipe along the side of the house to the other side. The lower edge of the roof, where the rain gutter will be, is 4m. My question now is, is about 3.5m height enough to guide water through a drainpipe that is to be led at an incline along the wall to the other side over 20 meters, or is that too little, so that, for example, the water might not drain properly?
