How well does artificial turf drain?

This is a good question. Our artificial grass products are all designed to drain exceptionally well. The permeability of our turf is ranging from 50 inches per hour to more than 100 inches per hour. You will be able to find the permeability testings on each of our product at this link: https://www.globalsynturf.com/artificial-grass-specifications-specs

Simply click on the product on this page, and you will see a drop-down menu with all of the testing data, and click on Water Permeability Test. 

Now, what is the meaning of how many inches per hour? To visualize this inches per hour term, let's take a hurricane storm as an example. In 2005, we suffered by one of the most devastated Hurricane Katrina in US history. In the most affected areas, the rainfall was totaled at 7.8 inches within 48 hours. Now let's compare, the minimum drain capacity of our turf is 50 inches per hour so regardless of how much rain you get, our turf will drain just fine, never a concern of flooding or water lake build up. However, drainage has a lot to do with the base, in rain areas, your installer has to make sure to prepare the turf base per our manufacturer's recommendations in order to achieve the best permeability.
