Drainage Length in the Early Water Plan
I used SketchUp to plan the interior and put body openings ahead of the framing, floor and wall panels.
My Interior Preparation notes included the shower drain and openings for three water tanks in that preparation sequence.
I removed cargo tie-down hardware for later framing mounts and door trim for the later insulation and paneling.

My Takeaway for the Build
My Interior Preparation notes put tank and shower openings before the finished interior. The Flex-Drain purchase adds a flexible route to compare by length and packed size. Its solid wall is a useful distinction from perforated drainage products; the two alternatives keep solid walls but supply shorter runs.

Product Detail
Model
Flex-Drain 51110
Format
4-inch solid corrugated pipe
Length
25 feet
The Flex-Drain 51110 is a four-inch solid-wall expandable landscaping drain pipe supplied in a twenty-five-foot format. Solid wall and perforated wall serve different routing purposes. For comparing utility-drain arrangements, identify the actual use, end connections and supported route rather than treating the flexible form as a substitute for every kind of van plumbing.
The pipe routes water along its length rather than through side perforations. That is separate from its corrugated and expandable construction.
Alternative products
Two Alternatives to Compare
ADS offers a ten-foot solid corrugated section. The shorter Flex-Drain expands to twelve feet, so the alternatives mainly change the amount of pipe and the way it is stored before use.
