StormGuard™ Filtration bags are made with an advanced geosynthetic material that provides high flow rates and are impact and UV resistant. These bags are filled with Earthlite™ filter media. Independent testing shows that Earthlite™ filter media removes TSS, Heavy metals, Phosphorus, Oil, Grease and E.Coli.
Used and a temporary filter around catch basins, chanelized water and along linear strips to provide a consistent filter for sheet flow from impervious surfaces. StormGuard™ Filtration bags are an easy, inexpensive solution for problem catch basins and other areas where your stormwater discharge is not meeting benchmarks related to the new NPDES phase 2 requirements.
Standard sizes and custom sizing available, reusable by changing out the filter media when it becomes saturated.
Earthlite™ filter media consists of expanded shale, clay or slate and lightweight, highly pours aggregates, designed for superior scrubbing and filtration of pollutants. Firing at 2000° in a rotary kiln, we produce a consistent and predictable high quality ceramic aggregate that is structurally strong, physically stable, durable, environmentally inert, light in weight and highly insulative. It is a non-toxic, absorptive aggregate that is dimensionally stable and will not degrade over time. As a filter medium, Earthlite™ is very durable, and coupled with its porous structure and increased surface area it provides a superior way to filter many different pollutants.
