Up-Flo® Sizing and Design
The Civilmart Up-Flo® Filter is sized to treat a specified runoff area or a design flow rate for a water quality design storm.
The number of modules is determined by the treatment objectives and the size of the runoff area. This is based on each individual filter module treatment flowrate. The flexibility of the system allows effective design for sites with low hydraulic drops.
Civilmart Water Quality’s expert PAD engineering team can assist in designing a system that is right for each situation.
