LTEC RESIDENTIAL/BMP/COMMERCIAL DRAINS

LTEC's drain grates are 3/16" powder coated steel measuring 4" wide by 2 1/2" tall. We offer 4” – 8” – 12” drain configurations. They work very well for BMP applications, garage flooding prevention, driveway pooling, parking lot runoff, car washes, gas stations and anywhere liquid runoff needs to be controlled. LTEC Drains will support fire engines, fully loaded semi trucks and trailers, industrial machinery, and automobiles. 

We are approved, certified, and endorsed by multiple county building departments, and by multiple environmental agencies that surround Lake Tahoe (we are a Lake Tahoe based company operating throughout the Central and Northern California regions). The engineers and architects from several agencies have conducted tests, studies, and have written several reports on how effective the LTEC drain system captures and conveys runoff to infiltration systems. We have earned an A+ for several reasons;

• LTEC drains are very low to no maintenance for the property owner, our competitor drains require constant maintenance and cleaning in order to function properly. The LTEC design keeps clogging debris from entering the drain channel thus reducing the need for cleaning.

• For concrete installations we fabricate U shaped feet out of re-bar that are welded to the bottom of the channel, this serves two purposes, it sets the drain channel at the correct height allowing concrete to fill the trench from the bottom up and acts as hold downs for the channel when encased in concrete. Our drain does not float, no other installation hardware is required.

• LTEC drains capture runoff from very steep impervious surfaces (roofs, driveways, roads) of up to 20% grades very effectively.

• Typically the contractor will save 65% in labor cost by installing our drain.
