Cartridge and media service for Contech, ADS, Stormtech, and Aquashield vaults in San Antonio.
Confined-space crews, OEM-spec cartridges in the truck, waste manifested off site. Your treatment vault back to design flow in a single visit.
Clogged stormwater filters fail silently, and quietly put your site out of compliance.
A stormwater filter is the last thing standing between your parking lot and the creek behind it. When the cartridges clog, the vault bypasses untreated runoff straight to the MS4, and the property quietly drops out of compliance with the water-quality permit on its post-construction file.
Scheduled and as-needed cartridge replacement, media swaps, and flow verification for stormwater treatment vaults and proprietary BMPs across the San Antonio metro: Contech StormFilter, ADS BayFilter, Oldcastle, Stormtech Isolator Row, Aquashield, and the rest.
Most commercial treatment vaults in Texas were specified once, signed off at substantial completion, and then forgotten by everyone except the auditor. Contech StormFilter, ADS BayFilter, Oldcastle, Stormtech, Aquashield, and the dozen smaller proprietary systems on the market each use a different cartridge geometry, different media chemistry, and a different service interval. A crew that shows up with the wrong cartridge in the truck wastes the visit and leaves your site bypassing.
We service every major proprietary system in the Texas market. Before we mobilize, we pull the original design specs and the last service record so the cartridge model, size, and count are confirmed at the desk, not at the manhole. On site, a confined-space-certified crew performs a pre-service flow check, swaps media to OEM specification, pulls spent cartridges and packages them under the correct waste manifest, then verifies post-service flow before backfilling the lid.
Every visit closes with a service record filed to the City of San Antonio (or whichever MS4 regulates the site) when the local program requires it, and a copy lands in your post-construction stormwater compliance file. The next inspection, audit, or property sale, the paperwork is where the next person needs it to be.
