About Drop Inlet Products

Dandy Products, Inc is located in Mount Vernon, OH. Their Dandy Curb product stands out from the crowd in comparison with other curb inlet filters. This incredibly tough product was created for curb and median inlets without grates. It can handle the very worst sludge in stormwater by filtering out the slowed flow and then captured by Dandy Curb before it can enter the inlet.

The Dandy Curb Bag is an advanced drop inlet filter designed for commercial use. This product was created and patented for use on gutter and curb inlets to remove the most challenging sediments that have built up in stormwater. With the slowed flow, these sediments are settled out and picked up by the reinforced Dandy Curb Bag before making it into the inlet.

The Benefits

This innovative design will prevent silt, sediment, and debris from getting into the storm system. It is made from an orange monofilament geotextile for easy visibility in all kinds of weather.

  • It easily adapts to the shape of the curb.
  • Has a built-in protective overflow design.
  • Reduces flushing or clean up in the inlet.
  • Easy to install, maintain, reuse, and inspect.
  • Is available in many sizes for any curb or gutter inlet.
  • Available with the optional oil absorbents.
  • Can be used many times again.

Installation

- Make sure to place the grate standing on end then place the Dandy Curb Bag over the grate.

- If you are using the oil absorbent option, place the absorbent pillow on the bottom of the unit and attach the absorbent pillow to the tether loop.

- Using the lifting device, carefully hold the lifting straps and place the grate into its frame, street side first.  Do not rely totally on the straps to support the weight of the grate.

- The Dandy Curb Bag should block the curb hood if installed correctly.

Maintenance

After each storm, collect all the debris and sediment that has gathered on the surface and the surrounding area.

If needed, remove sediment that has built up inside the containment area.

For the optional oil absorbent, remove and replace the pillow when it's close to saturation if you have chosen to use the optional oil absorbent.

The Dandy Bag is the flagship drop inlet filter bag for the company because it's perfectly created to be extremely strong and durable. The bag is perfect for rounded, mountable, or flat curbs to filter out sludge. The solids will settle out of the slowed flow and then are captured before getting to the inlet. You will get a regulatory-compliant performance every time.
