UltraTech Ultra Drain Guards

Protect the water system from sediment and pollutants with Ultra-Drain Guard catch basin inserts

The Ultra-Drain Guard is engineered to filter stormwater waste before it becomes a problem in the water system. As a storm drain filter, it removes contaminants like litter, sand, and oil from stormwater flow. Its geotextile fabric, Ultra-Filter-Tex, and easy installation make it ideal for industrial facilities, construction sites, and parking lots where stormwater runoff is likely to carry oil, eroded soil, debris, and fuel contaminants from cars.

Compliance: Exceeds 80% sediment removal efficiency. Helps comply with NPDES, 40 CFR 122.26 (1999) when used as Best Management Practice in Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans.

Installation: Easily installed in most drains. To do it, simply raise the grate, place the Ultra-Drain Guard over the opening, and carefully lower the grate back in place. As a final step, pinch the fabric in place to keep it secure.

Project-specific models: The Ultra-Drain Guard has several models:

Oil & Sediment Model (Part# 9217/9356) - removes up to .87 gallons of hydrocarbons as well as dirt, sand, and other contaminants.

Oil & Sediment Plus Model (Part# 9219/9358) - the addition of Ultra-Filter-Tex filter strips increases oil and grease absorption by .51 gallons, offering a total capacity of 1.38 gallons of hydrocarbon removal.

Trash & Debris Model (Part# 9227) - designed specifically to catch larger items and floatables like leaves, cigarette butts, and paper goods. More recently used for capturing plastic pellets in support of programs like Operation Clean Sweep.
