Overview[edit]
As their name suggests infiltration galleries work exclusively to infiltrate stormwater. They are an underground facility and are often used beneath parking lots or playing fields to treat flow routed from other areas.
Infiltration galleries are an ideal technology for:
- Installing below any type of surface or landscape
- Receiving and infiltrating large volumes of water
The fundamental components of an infiltration gallery are:
- Storage layer of coarse aggregate
- Structurally reinforced chambers
- Underdrain to redistribute or remove excess water
