Dobson Park Stormwater Havesting Scheme
Location: Melbourne
Products: Bafflebox, Stormceptor, Pure-rain
Date: 13 May 2019
The Challenge
Managed by Knox Council, Dobson Park and Tim Neville Arboretum includes: playgrounds, sports grounds and facilities, parkland with wetland areas. AKS was asked to help design a stormwater system that would reduce the parks reliance on mains water supply for irrigation.
Our Solution
AKS designed and provided a comprehensive stormwater management system that could harvest and treat stormwater from the surrounding roads, then store and distribute it across the site using our Stormceptor, Bafflebox and Purerain products. The goal was to maintain the year-round health of the park using a self-managing intelligent system that could take demand away from mains water supply and be monitored online, making resources and maintenance easier to manage.
