Drain Warden 1200×1200
$110.00 +GST
Filter heavy stormwater flows in large 1200×1200 pits to block hydrocarbons, silt, and site debris.
The Spillmaster Drain Warden 1200mm x 1200mm is engineered for large-format stormwater inlets and high-volume drainage points. Utilizing high-strength geotextile fabric paired with a central oil-absorbent bilge sock, it traps sediment and strips floating fuels and oils before water enters the drainage network—available in standard sizes or custom-built to your exact pit measurements.
-
Standard 1200×1200 & Custom Sizes: Sized for large industrial pit grates, with custom fabrication available for non-standard inlets.
-
Dual-Action Filtration: High-flow geotextile captures silt, soil, and trash while the absorbent bilge sock traps free hydrocarbons.
-
Easy Drop-In Installation: Mounts quickly under existing pit grates for continuous, low-maintenance run-off control.
-
EPA & WHS Compliant: Essential site protection tool to meet strict Australian environmental compliance guidelines.
Description
The Spillmaster Drain Warden 1200mm x 1200mm is a large-format stormwater drain filter designed to trap hydrocarbons, silt, oil, trash, and sediment before they enter drainage networks. Installed directly beneath the drain grate, its heavy-duty geotextile basin filters stormwater, while an included high-absorption oil-only bilge sock captures suspended hydrocarbons and fuel residues. Additionally, this 1200mm x 1200mm catch basin filter is widely used across construction sites, commercial car parks, marinas, shopping centres, and industrial loading bays. It suits site managers, environmental officers, and facility supervisors who require an economical, continuous solution for stormwater pollution control and environmental compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Drain Warden 1200mm x 1200mm and how does it work?
A Drain Warden (also known as a catch basin insert, stormwater drain filter, or sediment drain basket) is a geotextile filter installed beneath a drain grate. It captures silt, coarse sediment, trash, and debris while an integrated oil-absorbent bilge sock traps hydrocarbons, allowing clean filtered water to pass through into the stormwater system.
Where is the Drain Warden 1200mm x 1200mm commonly used?
It is ideal for construction sites, commercial car parks, retail shopping centres, marinas, waterfront facilities, transport depots, and industrial hardstand areas requiring a large 1200x1200mm drain grate insert.
How is the Drain Warden 1200mm x 1200mm maintained?
Inspect the unit regularly or after heavy rain events. Remove the drain grate, empty accumulated sediment and debris from the geotextile basin, replace the oil-absorbent bilge sock when saturated, and place the grate back over the unit.
