Rainsmart Ellipse Soakaway Set Flat-Packed with Silt Blok andamp; Lid 1 Cubic Metre

Rainsmart Ellipse Soakaway Set Flat-Packed with Silt Blok andamp; Lid 1 Cubic Metre

This soakaway set is comprised of four Rainsmart Ellipse Soakaway Crates (24.2-tonne vertical load capacity) and sufficient non-woven geotextile membrane to wrap all outward faces of the soakaway including the base. The set also includes cable ties for holding the crates together until the side fill has been introduced and a rubber mallet for easy assembly.Additionally, the set contains a SiltBlok Catchpit and Filter to filter out sediments and allow a clean flow of water into the soakaway, as well as an A15 Cover. The Silt Blok is a innovative and highly effective separators, designed to remove up to 99.9% of Silt and TSS featuring Turtle Enviroand#039;s unique BLOK filter. **PLEASE NOTE THE SILT BLOK HAS A LEAD TIME OF 3-7 DAYS**The Siltblok features a 100% recycled thermoplastic block (BLOK). This BLOK is installed into our rotational moulded chambers forcing all flow through the BLOK before reaching the outlet, filtering out Total Suspended Solids including silt up to 30m (0.03mm). The 300mm diameter, pre-assembled silt management chamber is delivered ready to install and uses 110mm or 160mm main channel socket connections.The basket attached to the BLOK has a capacity of 5kg, designed for developments with surface water run off of up to 500m.andnbsp; This model has a recommended inspection, emptying and cleaning schedule depending on usageThe assembly of the soakaway set really is a quick and easy process taking around 10-12 minutes in total and the self-assembly set represents excellent value for money - it is around 30 plus VAT cheaper than the fully assembled option.Full instructions are included and you can view a quick video on assembling flat-packed soakaways below.Soakaway DimensionsThe dimensions of the complete soakaway are 1430mm (L) x 800mm (W) x 860mm (D)Load Rating and capacity (volume of water held)Rainsmart soakaway crates have a void ratio of 95% - this is the amount of free space within the crate structure that can be used for rainwater storage. The capacity of this 1 cubic metre soakaway is an impressive 935 Litres. Under normal conditions, this would be sufficient to hold water from a roof area of approximately 50 square metres.The vertical crush load capacity of 24.2 tonnes per square metre ensures that the Rainsmart Ellipse crates are safe to be used beneath gardens and pedestrian areas. The lateral crush load of 18 tonnes per square metre is the best of any type of soakaway crate currently available in the UK.Clips are not required to hold the crates together. No clips on any crate system are structural it is always the side fill on any soakaway installation which adds the stability needed to hold the structure in place. Cable Ties are included with our 1m Soakaway Sets and these are used purely to hold the crates in place until the sand or gravel side fill has been added.The SiltBlok system ensures the longevity of the soakaway system - removing 99% of the silt and sand that would potentially end up in the system from surface areas. Emptying the filter on a regular basis (this is only a five-minute job) will maintain the efficiency of the soakaway and greatly increase its lifespan.All outward-facing crate surfaces of any soakaway should be wrapped in a non-woven geotextile membrane, which allows the free passage of water but prevents any soil or sand particles from entering the soakaway, maintaining its long term efficiency.Connecting Pipes to SoakawaysThe 110mm (orandnbsp;160mm) drainage pipe is fed into the soakaway via one of the four circular 160mm open entry points. 110mm pipes simply rest on the bottom of this opening and we recommend that the pipe is inserted approximately 300mm inside the crate. Geotextile membraneandnbsp;should be installed over the opening first and then a small cross should be cut in the membrane at the entry point with a sharp knife. Carefully peel back the membrane, insert the pipe and tape or clamp the membrane tightly around the outside of the pipe to stop the ingress of any soil particles.Joining crates togetherAs all four crates making up the soakaway set have a pipe entry plate, you should ensure that the three that are not being used face inside the soakaway as opposed to facing outwards this makes it easier to wrap the geotextile around the outside of the structure. Pipe entry points do not affect the structural integrity of the soakaway in any way.For a closer look at Soakaway Crates in generalandnbsp;please take a look at our detailed video.

Assembly is a very quick process, the full cubic metre set should take no more than 10-12 minutes and we throw in the rubber mallet that you need for assembly. You can view a quick video on assembling flat packed soakaways here.The dimensions of the complete soakaway are 1430mm (L) x 800mm (W) x 860mm (D)Rainsmart soakaway crates have a void ratio of 95% - this is the amount of free space within the crate structure that can be used for rainwater storage.

Rainsmart Soakaway Set For Heavier Soils Flat-Packed 1 Cubic Metre

Rainsmart Soakaway Set For Heavier Soils Flat-Packed 1 Cubic Metre

This soakaway set is comprised of four Rainsmart Ellipse Soakaway Crates (24.2 tonne vertical load capacity) with a covering of 2.4m x 2m x 30mm Nero drainage cells sitting above the main body of the soakaway. The kit includes sufficient non-woven geotextile membrane to wrap all outward faces of the soakaway including the base and the drainage cells above. Also included are cable ties for holding the crates together until the side fill has been introduced. This set also includes a rubber mallet in the kit for assembling the crates.You can view a quick video on assembling flat packed soakaways here. Itand#039;s a simple process that should take no longer than 12 minutes to make up the four crates the the soakaway is comprised of - if the project budget is tight then this is a useful option as the saving is around £30 plus VAT.Size, load and capacityThe dimensions of the complete soakaway are;Main Soakaway Body - 1430mm (L) x 800mm (W) x 860mm (D)Drainage Cells Above 2400mm (L) x 2000mm (W) x 30mm (D)All Rainsmart soakaway crates have a void ratio of 95% - this is the amount of free space within the crate structure that can be used for rainwater storage. The capacity of this soakaway is 1071 Litres. Under normal conditions this would be sufficient to hold water from a roof area of approximately 50 square metres.The vertical crush load capacity of 24.2 tonnes per square metre ensures that the Rainsmart Ellipse crates are safe to be used beneath gardens and pedestrian areas. The lateral crush load of 18 tonnes per square metre is the best of any type of soakaway crate currently available in the UK.The science bitHeavier soils hold rainwater within the soil particles for longer, slowing down the infiltration rate. This means that in heavy rainfall conditions the soakaway void will fill up quicker than normal. By introducing a layer of 30mm cells laid our in a table style above the soakaway crates, the soil contact area for infiltration is greatly increased  - the 30mm cells have a surface contact area that is over four times as large as the soakaway body.Note though that soils that are comprised completely of clay are not generally suitable for soakaways, due to the infiltration rate being so slow. If in doubt we recommend that you carry out a soil percolation test.Joining crates togetherClips are not required to hold the crates together. No clips on any crate system are structural it is always the side fill on any soakaway installation which adds the stability needed to hold the structure in place.  Cable Ties are included with our 1m³ Soakaway Sets and these are used purely to hold the crates in place until the sand or gravel side fill has been added.All outward facing crate surfaces of any soakaway or drainage cell should be wrapped in non-woven geotextile membrane, which allows the free passage of water but prevents any soil or sand particles from entering the soakaway, maintaining its long term efficiency.Connecting Pipes to SoakawaysThe 110mm (or 160mm) drainage pipe is fed into the main soakaway body via one of the four circular 160mm open entry points. 110mm pipes simply rest on the bottom of this opening and we recommend that the pipe is inserted approximately 150mm inside the crate. Geotextile membrane should be installed over the opening first and then a small cross should be cut in the membrane at the entry point with a sharp knife. Carefully peel back the membrane, insert the pipe and tape or clamp the membrane tightly around the outside of the pipe to stop the ingress of any soil particles. Pipe entry points do not affect the structural integrity of the soakaway in any way.Consider a Silt TrapFor best practice we always recommend that a pre-filter such as our Sentinel Silt Trap is used in conjunction with any modular soakaway system.  Emptying the filter on a regular basis (this is only a five minute job) will maintain the efficiency of the soakaway and greatly increase its lifespan.For a closer look at Soakaway Crates in general, including installation tips, please take a look at our detailed introductory video.

Terravault Root Protection System - 12 SQM Triple Flat Packed

Terravault Root Protection System - 12 SQM Triple Flat Packed

The Terravault is a modular cellular confinement crate system that provides protection for the roots of trees from traffic (pedestrian and vehicle).This system contains 36 crates and is designed to be laid 7 crates wide by 6 crates long - the middle (3 crates wide x 2 crates long) should be left open for the root.andnbsp;andnbsp;When sizing your Terravault Tree Root protection system, please note that the square meterage of the system installed should be approximately the size of the canopy.The Terravault 12 SQM root protection system is available in shallow, double and triple crate options.- Shallow - for use in sandy soil conditions- Double - for use in normal soil conditions- Triple - for use in heavy soil conditionsAll modules should be laid in the excavation with the tops off,andnbsp;modules should be filled with nutrient-rich soil to act as a slow-release fertiliser continually feeding the root structure. The top capped plates can then be attached.Please note that all edges and the top of the system should be capped using the closed end plates in order to stop the root from encroaching in areas where you donand#039;t want roots to grow. For full installation instructions, please take a look at our installation guide.andnbsp;andnbsp;5 small plates (mix of small internal access and small Ellipse small plates)andnbsp;are needed and 4 large plates (mix of Terravault and closed Ellipse large plate) are needed per moduleA root barrier should also be used on the closed sides for added protection.andnbsp;Benefits of installing Terravault modulesModules can be laid in whatever formation is required capping off areas where you donand#039;t want roots to encroach - no other product on the market works in this wayWithout Terravault the surface could become over compact and rutted resulting in not enough oxygen and nutrients getting to the roots - ultimately killing the treePrevents root damage - open matrix provides an area for maximum growth the crate completely absorbs all loadsAllows roots to grow via path of least resistance (through the open plates in the Terravault module) means roots donand#039;t grow up and cause dips and cracks to the with pavementArrives in flat-packed to save on space on site as well as delivery.

Rainsmart Ellipse Soakaway Set Flat-Packed 1 Cubic Metre

Rainsmart Ellipse Soakaway Set Flat-Packed 1 Cubic Metre

This soakaway set is comprised of four Rainsmart Ellipse Soakaway Crates (24.2 tonne vertical load capacity) and sufficient non-woven geotextile membrane to wrap all outward faces of the soakaway including the base. The set also includes cable ties for holding the crates together until the side fill has been introduced, and a rubber mallet for easy assembly.Assembly of this set really is a quick and easy process taking around 10-12 minutes in total and the self-assembly set represents excellent value for money - it is around £30 plus VAT cheaper than the fully assembled option.Full instructions are included and you can view a quick video on assembling flat-packed soakaways below.  To watch a short video of what is included in this soakaway set, please click here.Size, load and capacityThe dimensions of the complete soakaway are 1430mm (L) x 800mm (W) x 860mm (D)Rainsmart soakaway crates have a void ratio of 95% - this is the amount of free space within the crate structure that can be used for rainwater storage. The capacity of this 1 cubic metre soakaway is an impressive 935 Litres. Under normal conditions this would be sufficient to hold water from a roof area of approximately 50 square metres.The vertical crush load capacity of 24.2 tonnes per square metre ensures that the Rainsmart Ellipse crates are safe to be used beneath gardens and pedestrian areas. The lateral crush load of 18 tonnes per square metre is the best of any type of soakaway crate currently available in the UK.Joining crates togetherClips are not required to hold the crates together. No clips on any crate system are structural it is always the side fill on any soakaway installation which adds the stability needed to hold the structure in place.  Cable Ties are included with our 1m³ Soakaway Sets and these are used purely to hold the crates in place until the sand or gravel side fill has been added.Consider a pre-filterFor best practice we always recommend that a pre-filter such as our Sentinel Silt Trap is used in conjunction with any modular soakaway system.  Emptying the filter on a regular basis (this is only a five minute job) will maintain the efficiency of the soakaway and greatly increase its lifespan.All outward facing crate surfaces of any soakaway should be wrapped in non-woven geotextile membrane, which allows the free passage of water but prevents any soil or sand particles from entering the soakaway, maintaining its long term efficiency.Connecting Pipes to SoakawaysThe 110mm (or 160mm) drainage pipe is fed into the soakaway via one of the four circular 160mm open entry points. 110mm pipes simply rest on the bottom of this opening and we recommend that the pipe is inserted approximately 150mm inside the crate. Geotextile membrane should be installed over the opening first and then a small cross should be cut in the membrane at the entry point with a sharp knife. Carefully peel back the membrane, insert the pipe and tape or clamp the membrane tightly around the outside of the pipe to stop the ingress of any soil particles.As all four crates making up the soakaway set have a pipe entry plate, you should ensure that the three that are not being used face inside the soakaway as opposed to facing outwards this makes it easier to wrap the geotextile around the outside of the structure. Pipe entry points do not affect the structural integrity of the soakaway in any way.For a closer look at Soakaway Crates in general please take a look at our detailed introductory video.

Rainsmart Soakaway Set For Heavier Soils Assembled 1 Cubic Metre

Rainsmart Soakaway Set For Heavier Soils Assembled 1 Cubic Metre

This soakaway set is comprised of four Rainsmart Ellipse Soakaway Crates (24.2-tonne vertical load capacity) with a covering of 2.4m x 2m x 30mm Nero drainage cells sitting above the main body of the soakaway. The kit includes a sufficient non-woven geotextile membrane to wrap all outward faces of the soakaway including the base and the drainage cells above. Also included are cable ties for holding the crates together until the side fill has been introduced.Size, load and capacityThe dimensions of the complete soakaway are;Main Soakaway Body - 1430mm (L) x 800mm (W) x 860mm (D)Drainage Cells Above 2400mm (L) x 2000mm (W) x 30mm (D)All Rainsmart soakaway crates have a void ratio of 95% - this is the amount of free space within the crate structure that can be used for rainwater storage. The capacity of this soakaway is 1071 Litres. Under soil normal conditions this would be sufficient to hold water from a roof area of approximately 56 square metres.The vertical crush load capacity of 24.2 tonnes per square metre ensures that the Rainsmart Ellipse crates are safe to be used beneath gardens and pedestrian areas. The lateral crush load of 18 tonnes per square metre is the best of any type of soakaway crate currently available in the UK.The science bitHeavier soils hold rainwater within the soil particles for longer, slowing down the infiltration rate. This means that in heavy rainfall conditions the soakaway void will fill up quicker than normal. By introducing a layer of 30mm cells laid out in a table style above the soakaway crates, the soil contact area for infiltration is greatly increasedandnbsp; - the 30mm cells have a surface contact area that is over four times as large as the soakaway body.Note though that soils that are comprised completely of clay are not generally suitable for soakaways, due to the infiltration rate being so slow. If in doubt we recommend that you carry out a soil percolation test.Joining crates togetherClips are not required to hold the crates together. No clips on any crate system are structural it is always the side fill on any soakaway installation which adds the stability needed to hold the structure in place. Cable Ties are included with our 1m³ Soakaway Sets and these are used purely to hold the crates in place until the sand or gravel side fill has been added.All outward-facing crate surfaces of any soakaway or drainage cell should be wrapped in a non-woven geotextile membrane, which allows the free passage of water but prevents any soil or sand particles from entering the soakaway, maintaining its long term efficiency.Connecting Pipes to SoakawaysThe 110mmandnbsp;(orandnbsp;160mm) drainage pipe is fed into the main soakaway body via one of the four circular 160mm open entry points. 110mm pipes simply rest on the bottom of this opening and we recommend that the pipe is inserted approximately 150mm inside the crate.andnbsp;Geotextile membraneandnbsp;should be installed over the opening first and then a small cross should be cut in the membrane at the entry point with a sharp knife.
