Surface Water Capture
As rain falls on hard standing areas, it will flow with the gradient of the landscape, downhill to a point where it can be captured. This is known as the catchment area.
Sites have predetermined or designed catchment areas and the receiving component is designed to cater for a specifically designed flow of water, such as a roof gutter system, channel or road gully.
The surface water is then transported through a range of thermoplastic structured wall Ridgidrain pipes to and away from a SuDS water management solution before controlled discharge to a natural water course or sewer.
