Jetfilter System in Steel Sheet Piling


The top photo shows the discharge of mud coming through the weep hole. This relieves the water pressure from behind the wall.  This helps prevent the failure of the bulkhead.

The second photo shows the installation of the Jetfilter System. The Jetfilter System has a removable filter cartridge.  This is a key component of the Jetfilter System. The Jetfilter is installed on the front of the wall. This makes it easy to clean the filter.  For more info www.jetfiltersystem.com

Special Thanks to the Southwest Florida Water Management District for supplying the photos.
