Precast Underground Detention/Retention Systems
Regulations to capture and detain a measured intensity of rainfall will vary by municipality or state ordinance. Site specific challenges may also effect the need to capture stormwater and detain, retain or hold for harvesting.
Regardless of your specific site needs, Foley Products Company specializes in utilizing precast concrete pipe, precast box culverts, precast vaults/chambers to ensure that runoff rates from post-construction match pre-development runoff conditions while extending detention flow duration and maintaining discharges below erosive thresholds.
Precast offers high volume to footprint ratios, efficient designs, ease of installation, structural strength, durability and peace of mind.
