Distributed subsurface retention that removes surface water where pits and pipes can’t.
With the ponding goes the hazard, the mosquitoes and the complaints.
Consistent with AustRoads limits on standing water in traffickable zones.
On a site designed around the system, distributed nodes take the place of an outfall main and a centralised basin – no pumps, no single point of failure, and no land taken out of public open space.
EnviroKerb™ provides retention, storage and passive irrigation. It is recorded as a retention asset and is not part of the minor drainage system – not a treatment device, and not an infiltration system where the node is lined. In device-type terms it is a water wise street tree, which is the category the regional stormwater quality guidance already names as an accepted device. Cleaning is carried out to keep water passing through the asset. The maintenance program →
Gross debris is excluded at the kerb line and never enters the structure. Monitoring flags a node before it blocks, and the deviation sets the response – sweeping, then pressure cleaning the tray, then filter replacement.
You aren’t inheriting an asset nobody knows how to service.
Passive irrigation to the root zone, structural soil cells sized to the mature tree – canopy retention without reticulated irrigation or water trucks.
Resolving drainage constraints unlocks adjacent land, often at no cost to Council.
A whole-of-life servicing cost comparison against a centralised basin is prepared for the project.
We’ll map the nodes, size the storage and set out the maintenance regime and costings.
