Best way to Install Turbidity Barrier

(Bartow, Florida)

Correctly Install your Turbidity Curtain

When installing turbidity barriers, what is the best way to connect two sections? We have a Type 1 turbidity curtain in a pond.

Thank you for contacting us! When connecting two sections of a Type 1 silt barrier together, the best way is usually through the grommet eyes on each section. You will want to take the grommet eye on one section and align it with grommet eye of the next section that needs to be connected. Using rope or heavy-duty zip ties, you can then tie these two sections together and create a longer structure. You should repeat this system until the barrier has reached its intended length.

After this, you will want to tow your curtain out into the water until it reaches its desired position. When these sections are shipped to you, each one should have the skirt of the silt barrier rolled and connected to the flotation portion. These two items should be connected with twine reefing lines. You will want to make sure that these twine lines are still intact or reapply them to the curtain. Having these bundles still connected will make towing the barrier much easier.
