Protect high-flow curb inlets from silt, sediment, and other contaminants
The Ultra-Gutter Guard Plus® is designed for curb inlets with high-flow volumes. Its unique, multi-dimensional outer filter combined with a rigid inner frame prevents debris and silt from clogging inlets. Rebar, gravel, or similar material can also be inserted as a counterweight to keep the unit upright and secure.
The Ultra-Gutter Guard Plus has a low profile so it can protect curb inlets without being too obtrusive. This is beneficial where pedestrian traffic is frequent to reduce tripping hazards. The lower profile is also less likely to be damaged by street sweepers or other machinery.
Product Highlights
- Modular, 3-foot, inner frames allow for compact transport and storage.
- To keep unit upright and secure, rebar, gravel, or a similar material can also be inserted as a counterweight.
- Tie-back straps on either end of unit can be used with sod pin or stake for additional anchoring.
- Can be easily cleaned and reused.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Why WOULDN'T I use the Ultra-Gutter Guard Plus instead of one of your other stormwater management products?
Compared to some of UltraTech’s other curb inlet products, the Ultra-Gutter Guard Plus will take more time and effort to install. If there are many inlets in your project, this additional time could become significant. Additionally, the Ultra-Gutter Guard Plus is designed to remove only sediment, dirt, silt, and debris. It is not designed to remove other pollutants like hydrocarbons or heavy metals.
-
What is the pouch used for in the back of the Ultra-Gutter Guard Plus?
That pouch is designed to provide a counterweight to the unit and will help to keep the Ultra-Gutter Guard Plus upright/vertical. By filling the pouch with rebar, rocks, gravel, or another aggregate, the weight of the pouch will help pull the entire unit back toward the opening of the inlet.
-
What are the straps on either side of the Ultra-Gutter Guard Plus used for?
Those straps can be used to stake the unit down. Similar to the counterweight pouch (see above), the straps are used to help keep the unit upright/vertical.
-
How do I install and Ultra-Gutter Guard Plus?
The installation instructions will help explain the process but, basically, you assemble the frames that provide the internal support/structure and then place the frame inside the polypropylene sleeve. Secure it using the counterweight pouch and/or the tie-down straps.
