The popular Maintainable Weep Hole Drain with One-Way Valve is now available in 6" dia. 316 Stainless Steel or Powder Coated ASTM 36A Rolled Steel.
At the request of Marine Engineers, we have incorporated our one-way valves on to our 6" maintainable drain. The new 6 inch one-way weep hole drain combines:
- a geotextile filter media into a cleanable, replaceable cartridge; with,
- a check valve designed to prevent back flow from high tides & storm surge.
The one-way check valve assembly lets groundwater out, stops tidal wake/storm surge and floating debris from entering.
