Silt Saver Products
The Silt Saver High Velocity Ditch Check outperforms traditional rock check dams - delivering superior stormwater velocity control with compression tubes and a rear scour guard that eliminate undermining and scouring. Available in two sizes that contour to any ditch slope, it's the more effective, lower-cost, and lower-maintenance solution for channel stormwater management.
The Low Velocity Ditch Check is a multi-component stormwater management system that outperforms traditional fabric ditch checks and wattles by using a durable woven geotextile sleeve filled with kiln-dried pine chips, an attached front water seal, a rear scour guard, and compression stakes to slow channel stormwater velocity and prevent undermining. Pre-assembled and sold as a complete kit, it ensures consistent, high-quality installation every time.
The Silt Saver Curb Inlet Filter stops sediment from entering the storm drain system while maintaining stormwater flow to prevent dangerous ponding on streets and roadways. Built with a high-visibility green mesh casing for easy roadway identification, its biodegradable natural core provides a more environmentally responsible alternative to recycled rubber and wire materials.
The Silt Saver Frame and Filter Assembly is a drop inlet protection device designed to prevent sediment and trash from entering the inlets of a stormwater system.

The Silt Saver Frame and Filter Assembly is a drop inlet protection device designed to prevent sediment and trash from entering the inlets of a stormwater system.
The Silt Saver Low Profile Frame and Filter Assemblies are a non-sump condition inlet protection device designed to prevent sediment and trash from entering the inlets of a stormwater system.
The Silt Saver Landscape/Yard Use Frame and Filter Assembly is a durable, reusable polyethylene device designed to prevent sediment and trash from entering stormwater systems through small drains like yard inlets, golf course drains, and drywells up to 30 inches. Installation requires no machinery and takes just minutes, delivering consistent drain protection with minimal maintenance.
The Pedestal Inlet Wrap keeps sediment, grass clippings, and trash out of pedestal top inlets and the storm drains below. Its high-flow mesh design delivers effective filtration without restricting stormwater flow.
The Silt Saver Pipe Stopper is a horizontal pipe sediment control device that prevents sediment from entering stormwater pipes during construction, using a custom-designed filter cover that fits snugly over its HDPE frame. By keeping sediment out of your pipes, it eliminates the need for costly clean-outs before final inspections – saving you time and money on every project.
The Silt Saver Compression Tube is a weighted wattle designed to dissipate water velocity and retain sediment, featuring kiln-dried pine chip fill that expands when wet, compression stakes that prevent undermining, and a durable sleeve with handles for easy application and removal. An environmentally friendly alternative to recycled rubber and wire materials, it's built to perform where it matters most.
The Silt Saver Travel Lane Wattle is a lightweight, durable, and reusable stormwater filtration BMP, featuring a high-visibility green polyester mesh casing for high-flow filtration and ergonomic handles for easy installation and movement. The biodegradable pine straw core prevents the mold, compaction, and ponding, making them the ideal choice for stream protection, slope erosion control, and curb inlet protection.
The Chip 10 Wattle features kiln-dried pine chip fill that expands when wet for superior velocity dissipation and sediment retention, all wrapped in durable HV polypropylene green or black woven geotextile sleeves with convenient handles for easy lifting. Its biodegradable natural core makes it a proven, environmentally safe alternative to recycled rubber and wire materials.
The Silt Saver Silt Fence Outlet is a structurally enhanced dewatering device that integrates into perimeter sediment barriers or functions as a stand-alone filter dam, effectively dissipating velocity, retaining sediment in concentrated stormwater flow, and preventing the catastrophic fence failures that occur when stormwater becomes trapped. Replacing bulky hardware cloth and gravel, this prefabricated product features innovative 2-Stage technology and built-in Compression Tubes to prevent undermining – and can be installed or removed without heavy machinery, making it a durable, low-maintenance solution for stormwater management.
Silt Saver Priority 1 Belted Silt Retention Fence (P-1™, BSRF™) is a reinforced silt fence with greater then 96% efficiency of sediment retention designed for heavy duty sensitive areas.
Silt Saver Priority 2 Belted Silt Retention Fence (P-2, BSRF) is a nonwoven spun bound polyester fabric with greater than 96% efficiency of sediment retention for medium duty sensitive sites.
Woven Belted Silt Fence – Standard is an alternative to wire back silt fence that does not require wire and / or net backing.
Woven Belted Silt Fence – 2 Stage is an alternative to wire back silt fence that does not require wire and / or net backing and was designed to address areas with the heaviest stormwater flow.
The WBSF Combination Fence is WBSF 2 Stage Silt Fence with an additional delineation layer across the top.
