How Much Gravel Do I Need In My Well?
How much gravel do I need in the bottom of my window well?
Savage Window Wells usually adds 10-12” of gravel below the window sill. Since gravel only allows water to drain through, it is in essence forming a bucket to hold water. The deeper the gravel, the bigger the bucket. Deep gravel will not solve your flooding if you have drainage problems. No matter how big your bucket is, if water continuously flows into it, it will fill to capacity and overflow.
