The rainwater from my patio roof runs out via a downspout onto the lawn. A few meters from that outlet, I have a downspout that goes directly to the sewage system. I would like to run a pipe from the patio's downspout to the "real" drainage system.
I would be incredibly grateful if someone could give me tips on what I would need to carry out the installation
What do I need to buy?
There will be some digging involved, but I think the slope doesn't need to be extreme, as the distance isn't that far.
In the picture, you can see the patio roof's outlet on the left and the "real" solution on the right.

Yes, I assume it's stormwater to the right, all the rain from the house ends up there, and I want to direct the patio roof's water there as well.J Jochi said:
If there is a stormwater system there, just dig up the ground pipes and see what's there. There should be standard orange underground sewage pipes in PVC or PP.
In that case, you continue building with a T-pipe and extend the line further. Then a bend up at the downpipe that should be connected.

Do you possibly feel like linking the products I might need? I guess it's standard sizes for that?Claes Sörmland said:

Here's probably everything you need. 110 pipes

You need a branch pipe for connection to the existing pipe and some bends (also known as leaps).
You have to dig a trench for the sloped pipe. Start digging at the end by the existing pipe. It's good if the pipe starts with a vertical section so water drains away without overflowing, then the slope can be about 1 cm per meter 1%.
I suggest you hire a pipe guy to fix the pipes once you have the pipe trench ready.
