Your Quality Solutions, Inc.(YQS) offers comprehensive services for Your Quality Inlet Filter products, including recommendations, manufacturing, installation, and maintenance tailored to your specific needs. Our team ensures that each inlet filter fits properly and functions effectively, providing optimal protections for your stormwater system.
Your Quality Stormwater Protector™ Inlet Filters serve as the first line of defense when treating stormwater. These inlet filters are the most suitable products for use in streets, parking lots, rain gardens, residential, and commercial developments. All products are also PennDOT Inlet Configuration Compatible and have been proven to provide the best Storm Inlet Protection. Additionally, Your Quality Stormwater Protectors™ are the best NPDES PADEP Solution.
(U.S. Patent 9,963,865) features a reinforced design with an expanded steel mesh basket, providing an extra layer of protection by securely containing the filter fabric. This makes it the ideal choice for areas with higher concentrations of sediment and hydrocarbons. It’s effective during construction for erosion and sediment control and continues to perform post-construction by capturing sediment, trash, and hydrocarbons.
(U.S. Patent Pending) offers a streamlined, durable stainless-steel frame with removable filter baskets for ease of maintenance. Designed for moderate sediment capture, it is well-suited for both construction-phase erosion control and ongoing post-construction sediment, trash, and hydrocarbon management.
Trash in stormwater not only harms aquatic ecosystems but also clogs drainage systems, leading to localized flooding and increased maintenance costs. Items like plastic, packaging, and other debris can break down into microplastics, which persist in waterways and are harmful to both wildlife and water quality. Removing trash from stormwater at the source prevents this pollution from entering larger bodies of water, safeguarding ecosystems, and ensuring that drainage systems operate efficiently.
Sediment in stormwater often carries nitrogen, heavy metals, phosphorus, and pesticides into waterways, causing nutrient pollution that can trigger harmful algae blooms and degrade water quality. Excess sediment can also smother aquatic habitats; block sunlight needed for underwater plants and disrupt the natural balance of streams and rivers. By removing sediment and nitrogen close to the source, these negative impacts can be minimized, improving water quality, and reducing long-term environmental damage.
Hydrocarbons, such as oil and grease, originate from vehicle leaks, industrial processes, and other human activities. When hydrocarbons enter stormwater, they can be toxic to aquatic organisms and degrade water quality. Hydrocarbons also bind to sediments, spreading pollution further. Treating stormwater near its source to capture hydrocarbons is crucial to reducing this contamination before it can infiltrate natural water systems, ensuring healthier aquatic environments and protecting public health.
Capturing pollutants at their source not only protects the environment but also results in significant cost savings. By preventing trash, sediment, nitrogen, and hydrocarbons from entering downstream water systems, communities can reduce the need for costly cleanup efforts, infrastructure repairs, and long-term water treatment solutions.
One of the most important points of choosing an inlet insert is the amount of Phosphorus and Nitrogen the unit is able to capture.
