Ultimate Model Catch Basin Filter Bags Details
The Ultimate Model Ultra Drain Guard captures silt, sediment, and debris, filter oils and hydrocarbons, and deals with the stagnant water at the bottom of a storm drain that can contain bacteria, fungi, and yeast. The Ultimate Model Drain Guard is made with strips of Ultra-Filter-Tex AM (Antimicrobial) that hang down into the water at the bottom of the catch basin. These strips, often referred to as "tentacles," help address the single-celled organisms in the water that can contribute to issues related to bacteria and algae. As a stormwater treatment filter, this drain guard will tackle the bacteria in stormwater as it's also capturing sediment and filtering oil. The dimensions of the stormwater treatment filter are 48" x 36" x 38" (1219.2 x 914.4 x 965.2 mm).

Ultimate Model Ultra Drain Guard Applications
In catch basins where stormwater pools and is prone to growing bacteria, algae, or fungi growth, you'll want that extra protection that the Ultimate Model Ultra Drain Guard offers. The strips of Ultra-Filter-Tex will kill destructive bacteria that it comes in contact with. The sewn in antimicrobial strips are the only difference between the Ultimate Model Drain Guard and the standard Ultra Drain Guard, but make all the difference in these circumstances. Think of this stormwater treatment filter as giving you that extra protection in the catch basin. Municipal stormwater management plans will benefit from having a storm drain guard that deals with bacteria in stormwater.
Stormwater Treatment Filter FAQs
The Ultimate model takes the proven performance of the Ultra Drain Guard one step further, by adding antimicrobial strips that float within the catch basin to mitigate bacteria, fungi and yeast growth. The strips are sewn into the bottom of the Oil and Sediment Plus Drain Guard. So, you get the sediment and oil filtering power of the standard drain guard along with the active bacterial fighting power of the antimicrobial strips.
Other products we offer that filter contaminants right in your catch basin are the HydroKleen, the Heavy Metal Model Ultra Drain Guard, and the Ultra Filter Sock. The Ultra Hydrokleen is a catch basin insert that has insertable filters to capture oil, phosphorous, heavy metals, and other chemicals. The Heavy Metal Model Drain Guard has quilted portions in the catch basin bag that filter heavy metals specifically. The Ultra Filter Sock is used in front of storm drains and around downspouts and can be customized to remove the same pollutants that the HydroKleen can remove.
