Introducing An Innovative Tool In Storm Water Management
The Marlee Float Detention Pond Skimmer is an advanced erosion control device used in basins to withdraw from near the surface and promote proper sediment settling. When muddy water enters the basin, the sediment begins to settle to the bottom and the cleaner water tends to remain at the surface. Our detention pond skimmer’s unique build pulls water from just below the surface, significantly increasing trapping efficiency in the basin and prevents clogging from floating debris.
