Stormwater Retention / Detention
Stormwater Retention System
One of the major considerations in the development of storm water management is run off and flow control. In particular newer developments where buildings, parking lots, roads and other artificial surfaces replace open space. Many councils now require newly developed areas to install stormwater retention systems to capture or control the increase in peak run off during a major storm event.
Applications
Enviropipes Perforated pipe is typically used on applications such as:
- Roads and highways

- Sand and heap leaching for mines
- Sporting ovals
- Golf courses
- Parks and gardens
- Salinity
- High rainfall

In situations where there is fine sand and coarse silt soils, a filter sock is used to prevent fine grains from entering the slotted pipe. It also restricts the sediment from entering the drain line by stabilising the soil around the pipe corrugations.
Filter sock can be supplied separately or fitted onto the coil.
Enviropipes Slotted and un-slotted Coil are manufactured in accordance with AS2439.
