SELH02003 HPDC Diffusion
Design
Skeletank® High Performance Diffuser Conduits (HPDC) are used for the efficient diffusion of collected surface water runoff into permeable aggregates*. This technique can be utilised in conjunction with both pervious and impervious surfacings.

Specification
Skeletank® HPDC units are installed within the pavement construction zone as a sub-base replacement system and are fully compliant with BS7533-13:2009, ‘Pavements constructed with clay, natural stone or concrete pavers’.
The Skeletank® HPDC system is particularly useful where there are ground problems, such as high groundwater levels, contamination or shallow rock layers.
Each Skeletank® HPDC module is encapsulated by a 2mm mesh, which provides an excellent open surface area, allowing collected surface water runoff to easily flow into surrounding aggregate.
Each SELH02003 module also has a pre-formed 110mm diameter socket, allowing efficient connection to standard PVC-u underground pipework.
*When using permeable aggregate for water storage we recommend Aggregate Industries SudsAgg or similar.
