Hydro Stormbloc: new inspection access chamber

Edited by the Buildingtalk editorial team Mar 3, 2008

Stormbloc Inspect adds further dimensions of usability to Hydro International's highly versatile Stormbloc modular stormwater infiltration and storage system.

By introducing a variable height inspection and access chamber in the same Stormbloc module format, Hydro has provided integrated inlet, inspection, maintenance and access as part of the system, without additional costs for manholes and installation.

The Stormbloc Inspect unit also makes it easier for stormwater attenuation and infiltration systems to meet invert requirements no matter where they are sited.

The Stormbloc Inspect comprises modular stackable inlet, outlet and access points to meet the height of the Stormbloc installation.

The additional extension shaft enables direct access to the chamber and the storage/infiltration modules.

Pipes can be connected at low, intermediate or high levels in four different directions, with the versatility of a 360deg connection via the extension shaft.

Connection between multiple storage units is facilitated, for example in matching phased site developments.

Cut-outs in the Stormbloc Inspect shaft can be used for ventilation of the Stormbloc infiltration installation, in conjunction with a standard ventilated manhole cover.

Additionally, the 500 mm internal diameter shaft minimises any requirement for separate manhole chambers, thus reducing installation and capital costs.

The Stormbloc Inspect module also adds to the system's storage capacity, and can be integrated with all Stormbloc installations.
