Default Interior Downspouts!!

First time I have seen the downspout feed back into the basment.

One is no longer functional. The other is right by the main panel.

Nice!!

Thanks

I my town there are a lot of old houses with that similar set up. I once had a 2 story house with a flat roof, roof was pitched to back of property. rain water ran to back of roof into gutter, down a 4 inch pipe along side of house, into basement, pipe ran along the wall and back out to the front of house (underground )to a main in the middle of the street that collected the rain water from quite a few houses and sent it to a nearby creek. seemed crazy but it worked. no rainwater layed around the property and we always had a dry basement.
