What it is
WaterFrog is an underground emitter box that integrates filtration, controlled drainage, and system protection into a single component.
Installed at the lowest point in a wet conveyance system, it allows rainwater to move efficiently from collection surfaces to storage—while preventing the issues that commonly affect buried piping systems.
Why it matters
Traditional conveyance systems often struggle with:
Standing water in pipes
Freeze risk and pipe damage
Limited flexibility in tank placement
Maintenance-heavy components
Limited flexibility in tank placement
Maintenance-heavy components
WaterFrog addresses these challenges by introducing controlled drainage and integrated pre-filtration directly within the conveyance line.
How it works
Positioned at the lowest point in the system
Allows small, controlled drainage after rainfall
Prevents standing water from remaining in pipes
Includes a semi-self-cleaning filter to reduce debris buildup
This continuous movement of water helps reduce freezing risk and improves long-term system performance.
System Design Advantage
WaterFrog enables something most systems can’t:
Flexible Tank Placement
Tanks can be placed away from buildings
Tanks can be located uphill from collection points
Works effectively on challenging sites with limited space
This opens up new design possibilities for both residential and commercial projects.
