Maintenance is vital to safe, compliant, and functional stormwater infrastructure. Routine maintenance prevents device damage and ensures optimal performance of your stormwater assets. On-site stormwater detention (OSD tanks) requires regular inspections and routine maintenance, including –
- Debris, litter & sediment removal
- Tank cleaning
- Structural assessment
- Inspection of inlet, outlet & overflow points
- Maintenance logs & reporting
Detention tanks accumulate sediment, litter, and debris over time. Removing these pollutants from the OSD chamber is necessary to ensure optimal performance, prevent blockages, and preserve storage capacity. It also protects downstream tertiary assets, such as filter cartridges, from heavy pollutant loads.
The performance of undermaintained concrete OSD tanks is severely reduced, which poses a risk to the local community as their flood prevention capabilities are negatively impacted. This can lead to localised flooding, damage to stormwater infrastructure, and non-compliance with regulatory requirements.
Our range of primary treatment devices and Gross Pollutant Traps includes Ecoceptor, Vortceptor, and StormSack. These devices all provide high-performance stormwater pollution capture to prevent the conveyance of contaminants to detention tank infrastructure.
Routine maintenance is essential for identifying issues with your detention assets before damage leads to costly repairs. Atlan Stormwater provides a full range of stormwater maintenance services, including audits, inspections, emergency repairs, and routine maintenance.
Our range of locally manufactured detention products provides ease of maintenance. This range includes modular plastic chambers (AtlanChamber), concrete vaults (AtlanVault, MegaVault), and geocellular systems (AtlanCube). These tank systems feature built-in access covers to allow inspection, vacuum truck access, and cleaning. With a full range of custom access provisions available for your site, our designs ensure operational efficiency and reduced maintenance costs.
