Augmenting Soil Permeability to Enhance Your Stormwater Management Strategy
Stormwater infiltration is the most effective way to battle both flooding and stormwater pollution. GEPS improves the condition of insitu soils, increasing their infiltration rate by up to 10 times.

The stormwater landscape is littered with field-built best management practices that are labor intensive to build and cumbersome to maintain. It’s about time someone reimagined these stormwater control measures on which so much downstream relies. STORMBASiX eases the burden on the design, construction and maintenance of these systems, while reducing costs.
BATCH DETENTION VALVE
The StormBasix batch detention system controls a 6” valve and comes in two configurations; an outfall valve and a vault valve. The outfall valve simply sits adjacent to the stormwater impoundment on the backside of a berm or wall. The Vault Valve is designed to be placed into a concrete manhole. These complete prepacked systems makes installation simple and prevents costly mistakes in the field.
INLET RISER SCREEN
Inlet riser Screens have been a mainstay in engineered specifications for stormwater detention basins. On plans, they may meet regulatory requirements, BUT in reality, they often become a maintenance nightmare. Often made of chicken wire and perforated PVC pipe, it isn’t long before they are damaged or broken. Isn’t it time someone manufactured this simple yet effective Stormwater Best Management Practice to last?
SEDIMENT DEPTH MARKER
The STORMBASiX Depth Marker is a durable, easy-to-install visual guide designed to help maintenance teams and site managers quickly and clearly assess sediment and water depth in stormwater detention basins. Constructed from a proprietary blend of thermoplastics and marked with bold, easy-to-read numerical indicators (1–5 feet), this marker is both easy to read from a distance and can withstand the harshest conditions and heaviest equipment.
SUPPORT MATERIALS
Can GEPS be installed in landscaped areas like gardens or parks?
Yes, GEPS installs below the surface, leaving landscapes intact and preserving existing plants, roots, and aesthetics.
Does GEPS require any energy to operate?
No, GEPS operates entirely on passive energy, harnessing natural soil forces without the need for external power or pumping systems.
How do Exlterra solutions differ from traditional soil or water management products?
Exlterra products use natural, energy-free processes that integrate with the soil, providing sustainable, long-term benefits without maintenance or energy use.
How does GEPS contribute to groundwater recharge?
GEPS directs water into deeper soil layers, which supports groundwater recharge, making it an effective solution for areas with water scarcity.
How much faster than traditional drainage solutions is GEPS?
GEPS is up to ten times faster in infiltrating stormwater, quickly moving excess water away from the surface and into the soil.
Is GEPS suitable for all soil types?v
GEPS is adaptable to various soil types, from sandy to compacted soils, thanks to its customizable installation layout.
What impact does GEPS have on soil health?
GEPS enhances soil stability and prevents erosion, improving soil health over time and supporting vegetation growth.
Will GEPS help prevent flooding on my property?
Yes, GEPS can significantly reduce surface pooling and flooding by quickly absorbing and directing stormwater into the soil.
