PIG® Storm Drain Skimmer Squid

Install a Skimmer Squid inside your storm drain catch basin as a passive last line of defense to capture oils, sheens and fuels from your stormwater runoff.

• Filters viscous and non-viscous oils, sheens and fuels from water collected inside your storm drain prior to outfall discharge
• 3-foot diameter reach covers the largest area of any in-the-drain skimmer on the market
• Attached 9-foot line makes Skimmer Squid easy to deploy and retrieve; line can be adjusted to fit the depth of your catch basin
• Patent-pending design combines two unique absorbents to work above and below the surface of the water to maximize treatment efficiency
• Absorbent spaghetti-strip pillow (the “head” of the squid) floats to remove surface-level contaminants
• Absorbent pompom (the “tentacles”) sweeps through moving water to capture oil below the surface
• Works effectively in standing water or turbid conditions during rain events
• Ideal last line of defense against lingering oils and sheens that get past other stormwater treatment measures at your facility
• Designed to work in tandem with a PIG Storm Drain Filter for best performance (tie Squid to grommet at bottom of Drain Filter)
• Can also be used as a standalone treatment option when tied directly to storm drain grate
