How Does a Stormwater Pit Work?

When it comes to stormwater drainage solutions a stormwater pit is one of the most beneficial solutions to protect private property or public infrastructure from flooding and damage. Its primary purpose is to collect, filter, and redirect excess water safely through the connected system of drainage pipes at a controlled rate. Without it, issues related to flooding, erosion, environmental damage and pollution along with public safely can escalate significantly. 

Soak wells are also used to capture stormwater runoff. Similar to a stormwater pit, a soak well allows water to seep into the ground without damaging the surrounding soil. Not sure which one is right for you? Our plumbers get the job done right- the first time. Speak to our licensed and experienced drainage plumbers today.

Benefits of a Stormwater Pit

At Platinum Plumbing Solutions, we understand the importance of having a reliable and efficient stormwater pit, particularly in areas susceptible to heavy rainfall or inadequate drainage. Water damage and flooding can lead to significant stress, inconvenience, and expense if not addressed promptly. Benefits of a stormwater pit include:

• Property Damage - By redirecting excess stormwater away from your property, you can safeguard your building foundation, prevent soil erosion, and reduce the risk of flooding. Without proper drainage, excess water can seep into basements, garages, or beneath foundations, potentially causing cracks, mould growth, and structural issues.
• Landscape Protection - Excessive pooling water can harm lawns, plants, and soil stability. Uncontrolled stormwater runoff can wash away soil, causing erosion in gardens, yards, or embankments and potentially damaging vegetation.
• Flood Risk Reduction - By channelling stormwater into underground pits, you’re protecting your home or business from the risk of flooding and damage. A stormwater pit will capture and redirect excess water away from roads, driveways, or lawns.
• Compromise Infrastructure  - Public areas such as roads, sidewalks, driveways and parking lots are not designed to handle excessive pooling water over long periods. Over time pooling water can compromise and weaken asphalt, damage paved surfaces and cause potholes. These issues can cause public inconvenience and are costly to restore.
• Protect Waterways - Uncontrolled stormwater runoff collects pollutants and toxins such as oils and chemicals. It then carries them directly into natural waterways causing harmful contamination and devastation to our ecosystem.
• Safety Hazards - Standing water can conceal potholes and create slippery surfaces in public areas including pathways, posing hazards to pedestrians, cyclists, and vehicles.
