H2OLD ® Stormwater Treatment Uses a Three-Layer Treatment Approach:

soil surfaceOn the surface, lawns become compacted and impervious over time due to traffic, poor soils, and poor turf quality. This leads to an increase in stormwater runoff, which carries excess nutrients into storm drains that degrade water quality, and contributes excess stormflows for increased stream channel erosion.

Installation of the H2OLD ® system will recondition the soil, improving infiltration and permeability. Stormwater runoff is reduced for better water resource protection.

soil-root-zoneIn the root zone, water conservation and nutrient retention are key to maintaining turf. Weathered soils lose nutrients over time and lose their ability to retain nutrients from fertilizers. Water and nutrients leach easily from the root zone and are unavailable to plants.

Installation of the H2OLD ® system will retain both water and nutrients in the root zone, while providing the essential trace elements for plant nutrition. A thriving root zone produces the healthiest turf that will itself function as a stormwater filter and water conservation tool.

soil-water-tableBelow the root zone, water percolating slowly through the soil is critical to maintaining the groundwater table. Turf that prevents infiltration or readily leaches too much stormwater through the root zone will alter groundwater hydrology that sustains freshwater supplies.

Installation of the H2OLD ® system will condition the soil and improve turf quality for a more balanced watershed hydrology.

H2OLD ® Stormwater Treatment System is a Versatile Green Technology Solution

  • There are no toxic chemicals and only the most environmentally friendly products are used.
  • Environmental Benefits accumulate over time, recycling water and nutrients in the soil and producing beautiful turf.
  • H2OLD ® Stormwater Treatment System offers a sensible economic alternative to the installation of expensive stormwater treatment devices, by transforming existing landscapes into treatment landscapes.
