Protect Your Home with CULTEC Stormwater Chambers & Residential Dry Wells
CULTEC stormwater chambers are engineered infiltration systems designed to manage roof runoff, driveway water, and yard drainage at the residential level. These high-capacity chambers are buried underground and provide long-term solutions to water accumulation and flooding concerns.
When combined with residential dry wells, CULTEC chambers help redirect and absorb stormwater efficiently, preventing costly damage to foundations, basements, and landscaping. The infiltration process allows water to percolate back into the soil, reducing runoff and erosion.
CT Stormwater Authority installs CULTEC Recharger® and Contactor® chambers for homeowners throughout Fairfield County, CT and Westchester County, NY, including Stamford, Greenwich, Darien, New Canaan, Westport, Rye, and White Plains. Our systems are fully compliant with local regulations and designed to integrate with existing gutters, downspouts, and sump pump discharge lines.
If you're experiencing yard flooding, water pooling near your foundation, or soggy lawn conditions after storms, installing a CULTEC stormwater system with dry wells and infiltrators is the smart choice to protect your property.

Types of Drainage Systems Installed By CT Stormwater Authority in Westchester New York & Fairfield County
- Area drains: The purpose of an area drain is to collect stormwater and rainwater that flows off of surfaces like rooftops, sidewalks, parking lots, and streets. It has a variety of size options available to fit different connection sizes and locations.
- Catch basin drains: A catch basin drainage system is primarily designed for landscaping systems. This maintains proper drainage function and keeps dirt from accumulating in the drain line, preventing drains from becoming clogged or blocked.

- French drains: French drains are trenches dug into the ground in low areas of the yard. The trench is filled with a perforated pipe covered with water-permeable fabric and many layers of stone or gravel.
- Channel drains: Channel drains are mainly designed to remove surface water from a selective area. This reduces flooding and overflow. These drains also manage water flow by lowering system stress.
- Slope Drains: Slope drains directly discharge surface runoff or groundwater into a stilling aquifer, trap, or zone. Earth dikes and drainage ditches are used with slope drains to intercept surface runoff from cut or filled slopes.
