Maintenance

The Up-Flo™ Filter protects the environment by removing a wide range of pollutants from stormwater runoff. Periodic removal of these captured pollutants is essential to the proper functioning of the Up-Flo™ Filter.

The Up-Flo™ Filter design allows for easy and safe inspection, monitoring and clean-out procedures. The Up-Flo™ Filter has a wide central clearance for easy and comfortable access to the Up-Flo™ Filter components.

Maintenance events can be categorized as Routine or Annual.

Routine maintenance can include inspection, floatables removal and/or sediment removal. Routine maintenance events do not require entry into the Up-Flo™ chamber. In the case of inspection and floatables removal, a vactor truck is not required. However, a vactor truck is required if the maintenance event is to include sediment removal from the sump of the Up-Flo™ vessel.

Annual maintenance includes Media Pack and Drain Down Filter replacement in addition to sediment and floatables removal. In most instances, entry into the Up-Flo™ vessel is required for Media Pack replacement. There is the need to follow OSHA Confined Space Entry procedures when performing annual maintenance.
