Mole drains are used in heavy soils where a clay subsoil near moling depth (400 to 600cm) prevents downward movement of ground water. Mole drains are a more sophisticated drainage system than open drains. Mole drains do not drain groundwater but remove water as it enters from the ground surface.
How long do mole drains last?
In the right conditions, a well thought out and properly installed mole drain can last 15 years or more, however most mole drainage networks work best if they are reinstalled every 2-3 years.
How do mole drains work?
By towing a torpedo and plug attached to a blade 400 to 600 millimetres below the surface, a continuous void (mole drain) is created, in turn this causes the clay and soil above to become fractured and permeated by cracks.
