Curb Inlet Guard - Drain Inlet Protection Datasheet
Curb Inlet Guard (CIG) is a patented, low cost system which reduces sedimentation into curb drain inlets. CIG is engineered to balance the critical tradeoff between allowing water to flow off the street for safety and capturing sediment. CIG is an important part of a comprehensive best management practice approach for site sediment control. The integrated filter has a vertical height of 2 inches to allow water to bypass during high flow events. Each unit has additional bypass area cut through the open matrix. The units are made from durable and recycled HDPE with built-in brackets to keep it from collapsing into the storm drain. One size fits all - segments can be overlapped and adjusted as needed to fit all size openings. The system reduces costs significantly because it is easy to install, clean, has a long life and can be reused.
