HydroChain Chambers by Shawcor
INSTALLATION FLEXIBILITY WITH COMPOSITE INFILTRATION CHAMBERS
HydroChain Chambers provide long-term, effective infiltration for commercial, industrial and municipal projects. The chambers’ eco-friendly composite material and design geometry result in a structurally strong product for maximum storage in minimum site space. This material has been used for more than 50 years in the automotive, industrial and underground tank industries.
Can be used for retention, detention, infiltration such as pollutant capture and treatment or water reuse for irrigation when liner is used
Designed to withstand H-25/HS-25 axle loads and to exceed the specifications of ASTM F2418, F2787 and F2922 standards, and AASHTO LFRD Section 12
Manufactured with corrosion resistant impermeable composite material, such as eco-friendly soy based resin
BACKED BY DECADES OF SUCCESSFUL INSTALLATIONS
15 years of composite manufacturing and stormwater treatment technology
Site-specific product design by in-house engineers
Stringent quality-control of manufacturing
Comprehensive installation instructions
HOW THE CHAMBER SYSTEM WORKS
The heart of the Chamber system is the main header row, which is installed in either parallel or perpendicular configurations. This row serves as a collection point for incoming stormwater runoff. Inlet pipes can be placed virtually anywhere in the chamber system.
The main header row allows the sediment to settle as the water from the inlet manhole rises upward to the connecting pipe inverts.
Sediment collects on the patented sediment floors before the water passes into the distribution chamber rows.
The stormwater passes through the distribution pipes into the distribution (storage) chambers, where it filters back through the soil to recharge aquifers just as it would in nature.
Equalization pipes can be placed anywhere in the chamber system to maximize hydraulic efficiency.
