To do this It mut have an easy access to the tile and for this reason they should not be put down more I than two or two and a half feet deep On a clay soli ft require lonrer for the tile drainage .steni to become efficient after it Is installed, because It takes longer for the watercourses to form through the cracks, decayed rout passaees and animal burrows, hence we will secure better immediate results from a shallow system of dralnase than when the tile are placed deep.
