Somerville Marketing- Cultec Authorized Dealer for Western Canada! The CULTEC Complete Stormwater Management System: CULTEC provides a complete stormwater management plan consisting of filtration, conveyance, storage and infiltration. CULTEC’s Stormwater Systems meet the regulations of EPA’s Phase II of the Clean Water Act.
CULTEC, Inc. is the manufacturer of CULTEC Contactor® and Recharger® Plastic Stormwater Detention/Retention Chambers, CULTEC HVLV™ Header Systems and CULTEC Stormfilter® Water Quality Filtration Chambers. Each of the products listed below may be used in conjunction with each other to provide a BMP manner of subsurface stormwater management in accordance to Phase II of the federally mandated Clean Water Act. The Clean Water Act mandates that a certain percentage of stormwater run-off be contained and treated on-site. This means that developers and homeowners need to capture and contain a degree of stormwater run-off that is shed by their impervious structures such as buildings and parking areas. Infiltration has been proven to be the leader in the removal of phosphorous, nitrogen, lead, zinc, suspended solids and organic carbon when compared to wetlands, water quality ponds, filtering systems and water quality swales. Systems may be installed quickly and easily using a patented overlapping rib connection unique to CULTEC chambers. They require less stone and area than most pipe systems. They allow land to be use for other purposes such as parking. They are lightweight, yet they can withstand AASHTO H20 designation. Water enters from a collective device, typically from a catch basin inlet structure; it then passes through our CULTEC Stormfilter® Water Quality Filtration Chamber to remove silt, fines and debris. The stormwater is then conveyed from the CULTEC Stormfilter® by our CULTEC HVLV™ Header System and directed into the CULTEC Recharger® Chambers for storage until it can infiltrate back into the ground. |
