Wavin AquaCell units are a tried and tested modular technique for managing excessive rainfall and can be assembled to create an underground structure as either a temporary attenuation tank or infiltration soakaway.

Continuing development, a changing climate and the consequences of intensified rainfall are all increasingly prominent issues on the political and environmental agenda, particularly after the extreme flooding that hit the UK in December 2015.

 

What are the benefits of AquaCell units?

Some benefits of AquaCell units include:

  • Significantly reduced flooding risk
  • Controlled, reduced-volume release of stormwater into existing sewer systems or watercourses
  • Recharging of local groundwater (if infiltration/soakaway application)
  • Aerobic purification to improve water run-off quality
  • Sustainable, cost effective management of the water environment
  • Helping SuDS and planning approval

The proven qualities and performance of AquaCell systems not only support the achievement of SuDS, but can also help reinforce and enhance planning applications, and enable development to proceed.
