Installation Guidelines for Brentwood StormTank Connection Accessories

These Installation Guidelines were written by Brentwood Industries, Inc. to inform contractors and other installers of the steps needed to safely and successfully install Brentwood StormTank Connection Accessories (Observataion Ports and Inlet/Outlet Connections). As every installation is unique, additional installation procedures may be required at a given site. The text and pictures shown here are for illustrative purposes only. Always check with the site owner/project engineer for their specific requirements. Contact your local StormTank distributor or Brentwood Industries for additional technical support, if required.

Inlet/Outlet Connectors

1. Cut Hole in Side Panel
Using a hole saw or jigsaw, cut a hole in the StormTank Side Panel in the same diameter as the inlet/outlet connector pipe. Before cutting, make sure the center of the proposed hole is located at the correct elevation and that the flange plate of the connector does not extend beyond the side panel edges.

2. Attach Connector to Side Panel
Attach the connector to the side panel using cable ties through the holes in the corners of the flange plate. Make sure the longer length of the inlet/outlet connector pipe is on the outside of the StormTank system to allow for joining the drain pipe.

3. Cover with Geotextile and/or Liner
Cover the connector flange plate with geotextile and/or liner material and seal with banding or water-resistant tape.

Observation Ports

1. Cut Hole in Top Panel
Using a hole saw or jigsaw, cut a hole in the center of the StormTank Module Top Panel in the same diameter as the observation port pipe.

2. Align Port Plate with Top Panel
Insert two StormTank Vertical Connectors into the circular recesses of the top panel of the StormTank module and align the port plate using the matching holes in the plate.

Make sure that the plate is positioned so that the corners of the plate extend across the two adjoining modules.

3. Cover with Geotextile and/or Liner
Cover the port plate with geotextile and/or liner material and seal with banding or water-resistant tape.
