RE: Question about pitch of underground drainage pipe. The big 120 ft drain with 3 gutter spouts in it remains almost flat (maybe 4-6 inches of downward pitch - tops) for the first 85 ft or so. The last section is where it starts to pitch downward (another foot or so).
So if you have a 25-foot section of guttering, you should set the downspout end of the gutter 5/8 of an inch lower (1/4 x 2.5 = 5/8) than the other end. This brings up another important rule to keep in mind: all guttering must slope toward the nearest downspout.
