TRANSCRIPT
maintainable weephole drainage filter
For taking the time to watch this presentation on JETFilters,
the maintainable weephole filters.
You may be watching as you:
1. have a concern over possible failure of an earth retaining structure, such as a retaining wall, seawall or riverbank
2. appreciate the investment such a structures is and want to maximise the life of that investment
3. are seeking to update your knowledge on the current best practice means to reduce water pressure consistently from behind a structure, without creating erosion and potential sink holes.
4. may simple have hear of JETFilters and want to learn a bit more

Open weep holes whilst in the short terms eliminate water pressure, become a source of
soil erosion, as fines move from the rear of the structure.
This can result in instability behind the structure and in extreme cases sinkholes.

Once cleared it is very apparent that this open weep hole has no

New DevelopmentsStainless Steel JETFilters
Following on from the very successful introduction of the larger 4” and 6” filters, all three sizes are now available in Stainless Steel
New DevelopmentsOn many occasions the need for a flap valve or flow control valve to act against tidal surges and in some instances to inhibit the ingress of grass has been stated. The answer we have always given is that nothing should prevent the flow outward.
After a lengthy testing period, we are pleased to announce that a new deflection valve will be available, this patented design maintains a constant means out outflow, but provides protection from surges.
COMING LATE SUMMER 2015
• Designed uniquely to allow drainage without erosion
• Extends the life of your earth retaining structure
• Maintainable
• Suitable for • Retaining walls• Seawalls• Bulkheads• Bridge abutments
