Dandy Curb Bag:

If you are looking for a professional strength drop inlet filter, look no further than the Dandy Curb Bag. This product is designed and patented for use on both gutter and curb inlets to remove the most difficult sediments that are formed in stormwater. With the slowed flow, these solids are settled out and grabbed by this tough Dandy Curb Bag before getting into the inlet.


The Benefits:

• This excellent design will keep silt, sediment, and debris out of your storm systems.
• Easily adapts to the curb's shape.
• Has a built-in protective overflow design.

Installation:

• With the grate standing on end, place the Dandy Curb Bag over it.
• If using the option oil absorbents, place the absorbent pillow on the bottom of the grate pouch.
• Attach the absorbent pillow to the tether loop.
• Tuck the enclosure flap inside to completely enclose the grate.
• Hold the lifting straps carefully to place the grate into its frame (street side first). Note: do not rely
completely on straps to support the weight of the grate.
• Lower the back edge into place.

If installed properly, the Dandy Curb Bag should partially block the curb hood.


Maintenance:

• After each storm, remove all accumulated debris and sediment from the surface and surrounding area
• As needed, remove sediment that has accumulated inside the containment area.
• If using the optional oil absorbent, remove and replace the pillow when it nears saturation.
