Types of stormwater management

Channel drainage

Drainage channels (also known as channel drains) are constructed watercourses that move water through underground drainage systems. They help prevent flooding and overspill on driveways, patios, gardens, and parking lots.

Stormwater drainage

A storm drain is an infrastructure that takes stormwater runoff and carries it away from places like roads, rooftops, gardens, and footpaths and releases it into the sea or water catchments.

Storm drain baskets

Storm drain baskets are filters that prevent litter and debris carried by stormwater from entering a stormwater drainage system. They can be made from steel or plastic and may be fixed or removable.

Detention tanks

Detention tanks are tanks that store excess stormwater and gradually release it. They prevent flooding by reducing the impact of heavy rain on a property, therefore minimising the damaging effects of rain on waterways and coastal Australia systems.

The advantages of high-quality stormwater management systems

Effective stormwater management is one of the most essential aspects to consider for your building. From clean streams, lakes, and rivers to a lower risk of flooding and higher water quality, incorporating high-quality stormwater management on your property provides several social, economic, and environmental benefits to you and your community.

How to choose stormwater management that’s right for you

Land use factors are the first thing you want to consider when selecting a stormwater management system for your property. Systems may differ according to whether the system is being used for residential or commercial developments or roads, highways, and car parks.

If you are more environmentally conscious, you should consider the possible impact of your system on the environment. You may wish to investigate pollution prevention opportunities to minimise runoff, thereby ensuring surrounding habitats and terrains are not affected.

Site considerations are also important. For example, evaluating soil quality, slope steepness, catchment area size, and other environmental constraints will help you understand what system would best suit your structure, depending on where in  Australia you live.
