HILLIARD, Ohio – A new online software program to select the proper components and design an inlet filter unit for a storm water drainage system is now available from Advanced Drainage Systems, Inc. (ADS), the world’s largest manufacturer of corrugated high-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipe.
The step-by-step FLEXSTORM® Product Configurator is available free of charge at www.inletfilters.com and allows a filter to be configured based on drainage structure type and filtration needs. A resources section contains product details, engineering drawings, specifications, educational videos plus operation and maintenance plans. FLEXSTORM Inlet Filters are known for their advanced technology, favorable economics, ease of use and ability to trap debris. Because components are configurable and adjustable, units are designed to fit any drainage structure while providing maximum protection. Each FLEXSTORM unit effectively filters silt, solids and other pollutants and readily fits an ADS pipe system.
“The new program consists of three steps that enable the user to identify the type of drainage system, allows selection of the framing material and the appropriate filter bag. Then the program automatically configures the FLEXSTORM unit,” stated Tori Durliat, director of marketing for ADS. “FLEXSTORM helps a system meet the EPA’s National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Phase II Storm Water Rule which protects our nation’s water. This program makes it very easy to obtain the right unit to meet or exceed the requirements.”
FLEXSTORM Inlet Filters are available for all casting and catch basin types for construction and post construction applications. Each filter is configured to fit the designated drainage opening and installs in seconds. The unit is made up of a rigid steel frame that supports a suspended sediment bag which filters storm water runoff below grade through various geotextile and pollution removal media.
