Common problems and how to troubleshoot them for tree trenches and tree boxes
Link to this table
Symptom | Possible causes | Solution |
---|---|---|
Standing water within the infiltration area for more than 48 hours | This might be because a pretreatment is no longer working, or there are excessive sediment loads due to erosion or high sediment loads from the contributing area. |
|
Rainwater does not appear to flow to the infiltration/filtration area | Leaves, sediment, trash, or plant debris may be blocking the flow path to the inlet | Remove these materials on a regular basis |
Tree is not growing or shows signs of poor health during inspections |
|
Consult with an arborist. Check that plants are suited to the local conditions. |
Erosion or scouring around the inlet | Flow is obstructed by debris or improper grading | Correct for drainage and flow path issues to make sure flows are evenly distributed. Make sure the flow paths are unobstructed |
