Curb Inlet
Guard™ (CIG) is a high performance, low cost system which stops debris
and reduces sedimentation into curb drain inlets. |

Case Studies |
CIG is engineered to balance the critical tradeoff between
allowing water to flow off the street for safety and capturing sediment. The drain inlet is the last-chance
opportunity to capture sediment before it flows into the nation’s
waterways. It is very difficult to
remove sediment from concentrated flows.
At the same time it is not feasible to allow the water to back-up on
the street. Therefore a balance must
be achieved in the design of the inlet protection device. |

The system is very
easy to clean. It is also highly
durable. Its ability to perform for
the duration of a long project and its reusability are key benefits. |
Curb Inlet Guard has
integrated bracketing which prevents the segments from getting pushed into
the manhole during high pressure, high flow events. |
One size fits
all. The system can be overlapped for
long drain inlets. If the drain
opening is higher than 8 inches, the integrated brackets can be adjusted
vertically to provide support against the upper curb lip. |
