What do you have to use to attach a drainage pipe to the basin? Silicone, PVC cement?

I am not sure what type pipe you are using but the type I used was the black plastic drain pipe. My cuts we clean and true so the pipe fit snug into the basin so no glue was necessary. Hope this helps. JM

Build the base up with decorative rock from Lowes. The sprinkler valve will be more protected.

Anything that provides water pressure. So a pump or a faucet would work. Just make sure the pump isn't too high pressure or it might burst the line.

I had similar problem. Small drainage ditch. I ran some 1/2" PVC from side to side, then ran wire through that. Has worked for the last 6 months.

Make sure the tube is sealed tightly around the pipe....I used silicone sealer

For the Screw-in style nipple I used a regular paint type bucket (never used) and an 11/32 inch bit worked perfectly. I did use Teflon tape also as a precaution. If you use PVC you need a 5/16 inch bit and again use Teflon tape for a good seal. Silicone sealant has been used by some people if the tape doesn't give a full seal. Hope this helps.

Yes the Mr Stacky website has instructions and a video. It's just PVC pipe and Conduit that your will need found at any hardware store.

The rainwater urn comes with the urn and the faucet, some teflon tape for the threads of the facuet and a plastic strainer for the inlet. You will need whatever hardware you want to port the down spout to the top of the urn. This can be as simple as redirecting the downspout, or there are more complex diverter systems sold seperately to stop from overflowing the urn. I opted not to use an expensive diverter and instead drilled a 1" hole at the top of the urn and use 1 1/2 inch PVC pipe to create an overflow port that i routed where i wanted it with the pvc pipe. I am very happy with my rainwater urn.

Part does not have pre-drilled holes in it. I believe the intent of the design is to bring drain tiling to the basin and pump it out from there. You would only need holes in the lower half of the basin if you are trying balance the ground water pressure and the basin. If you cement this the basin or physically hold it down (ie large rock on top)it wouldn't push up.

I used silicone gasket compound on the fittings that screw into the filter housing instead of teflon tape to make sure they would not leak. I purchased a Culligan mounting bracket to help support the filter housing since the pipe is cpvc. I also added by-pass valves and pipe so that if I need to replace the filter housing I will still have water. A few dollars more, but I will always have water.

I put liquid silicone (the kind you can dip tool handles in, comes in a can) over my connection so I can use most of the 50' in piping. Of course in my case I run it from my desktop computer to the drain lines in my house so I only really need about 35' of the 50' in the pipe. The rest runs from the clean out to my desktop computer in the den. I record on my computer instead of connecting this to a camera.

I mounted it on 4" drainpipe but it will also mount on schedule 4o PVC and then used a bunch of self-tapping bolts to suck it together in a sandwich and sealed the edge with silicone - done

it comes with a plastic PVC pipe. You dig a hole , concrete and place. Its Junk. the sections get rusty, you cant move it up or down after very little moisture gets in it. Mine broke completely in half after 3 months.

I used Oatey "rain-r-shine' blue PVC cement and purple primer from HD on mine and it has worked out fine. Several months with a new variable speed pump with no leaks or issues.Hope that helps!

Our's came with it and everything needed for the install. I used plumber's putty and it leaked when installed.Took it out and reinstalled with silicone, which worked perfectly. FYI... if you over tighten the clamp that holds it in, it willstrip over it's seat on the drain. The unit is quiet and works well

I used Watts clear braided PVC hose with aquatic/food grade silicone sealant + a stainless steel clamp to hold the hose in place. Home Depot sells the hose in pre-cut 2' sections. I took the bulkhead to HD and checked it for proper fit into the hose (plumbing section where they have specialty connectors, hoses, etc.). Cost is between $5.25-$5.75 per 2' section

I don't think siliconing it will give you a long lasting solution. You'd have to make modification to it just to get it to sit flush before siliconing it. I recommend using a dremel or dremel like product to cut out the old rust drain and then replace it properly.
