Tempest® Inlet Control Devices
IPEX Inc.
The Next Generation of Storm Sewer Inlet Controls
Tempest® is a of family inlet control devices that work together across a series of catch basins to limit the amount of storm water runoff that can enter a combined sewer system during a storm event.
Basement backups and sewer overflows are avoided because storm water surcharges are controlled at the sewer inlet and are allowed to remain in catch basins or temporarily above ground.

A Cost-Effective Solution to Storm Water Surcharge Problems
Tempest® provides control by restricting flow into the sewer system and conserves sewer system capacity and slows down the inlet flow. This results in a reduction of residential flooding and flash flooding
Integrated Odour & Floatable Control
In addition to flow control, Tempest® systems can also alleviate sewer system odour emissions as well as prevent floating debris from entering the sewer system
Wide Range of Models & Pre-Set Flow Rates
Available in a wide range of patent-pending models and pre-set flow rates, Tempest® systems can accommodate most storm water flow control requirements from 32 GPM to 270 GPM and beyond. Application specific solutions can also be engineered to meet your unique needs in both wet and dry catch basin environments
Easy to Install & Maintain
Constructed from durable PVC, Tempest® units are corrosion free and built to last. Its lightweight design accommodates square and round catch basins and features a universal back plate and interchangeable components with no moving parts, making the units easy to install over a catch basin outlet pipe
