Stop sediment and other pollutants from entering stormwater drains
The Ultra-Filter Sock represents the ultimate in above-drain stormwater protection. With the different filter media options available, our filter sock is capable of removing many different types of sediments and pollutants. In fact, it is the only product with this versatility.
The 9-foot-long filter socks are placed in front of storm drains. The woven geotextile material allows stormwater to flow through into the storm drain while the media inside of the filter sock removes pollutants.
Product Highlights
- Use the Ultra-Filter Sock front of storm drains, around downspouts, in gullies and ditches, or anywhere there is potential for harmful stormwater runoff.
- Woven polymer casing allows water to pass through quickly while filtration media inside removes pollutants.
- High UV rating allows extended life in sun and elements.
- Available in 9-foot lengths. Units can be overlapped for longer coverage.
- Looped ends allow units to be staked in place and also assist in transport.
- Available with different types of media depending on which pollutant is present. (Multiple Ultra-Filter Socks can be used in a “treatment train” if the potential for more than one contaminant or a large quantity of a single contaminant is present).
- Option for heavy-metal removal available.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Why would I use the Ultra-Filter Sock instead of one of your other stormwater management products?
The Ultra-Filter Sock has several distinct advantages that could prove to be a deciding factor in choosing it to protect your drain from incoming pollutants. (1) Ease of use and installation – with the Ultra-Filter Sock, you simply lay it down in front of a drain or inlet. No hardware to install, no heavy grates to lift. (2) Versatility – the Ultra-Filter Sock has multiple filtering media options available which enables it to remove pollutants that a lot of other stormwater products cannot remove. (3) Multiple media options – not only are there several media options available but you can use them together in a “treatment train” so you can filter out many different pollutants.
-
Why WOULDN'T I use the Ultra- Filter Sock instead of one of your other stormwater management products?
If a “clean” installation is a significant concern or the Ultra-Filter Sock could pose a tripping threat to pedestrian traffic or an obstruction for street sweepers or other equipment, it may not be the ideal solution.
-
I have a 10' long curb inlet. How do I protect it?
Since the Ultra-Filter Socks are only available in one length (9′), you can simply use multiple units when more than nine feet is required. It is recommended that you overlap units to insure complete coverage/protection.
-
There was some powder in the box that my filter sock was shipped in. What's that all about?
Due to the nature of the filter media, some fine dust and powder can be released from the sock during transport (this is especially true of socks with HMRM). We recommend rinsing the Ultra-Filter Socks with a hose on grass or a vegetated area prior to use. This will allow most of the fines to be removed and captured away from any catch basin.
