Rainwater infiltration system: efficiently solving waterlogging and drought problems

As an entrepreneur or organization, you are probably aware of the challenges surrounding flooding and drought. It is important to invest in an effective infiltration system, especially when working with large projects or in a business environment.

DWTN offers high-quality plug-and-play solutions for rainwater infiltration and water collection to ensure efficient water drainage, both temporarily and permanently. We are happy to explain how a complete infiltration system can help you prevent problems such as flooding and use rainwater effectively.

What is an infiltration system?

An infiltration system is an ingenious system used to infiltrate rainwater into the subsoil instead of draining it into the sewer. This infiltration system ensures that rainwater seeps into the soil in a controlled manner, which helps to prevent overloading of the sewer network and contributes to restoring the local groundwater level.

It is important that the connection is done properly to promote the drainage of water. Infiltration systems are ideal for both residential and commercial applications and can even function effectively in heavier environments such as parking lots or gravel business premises.

Benefits of a rainwater infiltration system

Prevents flooding : By infiltrating rainwater in a controlled manner, you prevent too much surface water on your property. An infiltration system ensures that you tackle problems at the root.

Sustainable solution : Instead of draining water, it is reused in the soil, which contributes to a more sustainable environment. An infiltration well can also be used.

Efficient and cost-effective : Installing an infiltration system is a cost-saving solution for rainwater management. It prevents expensive infrastructure adjustments for water drainage.

Increases the groundwater level : By allowing rainwater to infiltrate into the soil, you contribute to the restoration of the groundwater level, which is important during periods of drought.

Installing an infiltration system: what should you pay attention to?

Installing an infiltration system requires sound planning and expertise. At DWTN, we have years of experience in supplying and installing infiltration systems for large commercial and industrial projects. A well-installed infiltration system usually consists of infiltration crates that temporarily store rainwater and allow it to infiltrate slowly.

Crates and tubes : Our infiltration crates are specially designed to collect rainwater and infiltrate it efficiently into the soil. Depending on the project, we can offer an infiltration crate of several liters.

Geotextile : Our infiltration systems are often wrapped with geotextile to prevent dirt or sand from hindering the operation of the system.

Specifications : The dimensions of the infiltration crates are custom made to meet the specific water needs of your project.

The importance of rainwater recycling and reuse

An infiltration system offers the possibility to not only infiltrate rainwater into the soil, but also to recycle it for reuse. This can help to reduce the pressure on drinking water supplies and contributes to sustainable water management. The water can be stored and used for paving , irrigation or even to support heavy traffic on industrial sites.

Customer cases and experience

DWTN has a lot of experience in delivering optimal infiltration wells for large business and industrial customers. We have worked with municipalities and companies that had to deal with heavy rain showers and flooding . By implementing our infiltration system , water caused by showers was effectively collected and infiltrated in a delayed manner, which resulted in less pressure on local sewers and more water savings.
