Why Pumping Station Maintenance Matters
Regular pumping station maintenance can help prevent unexpected breakdowns, flooding, blockages and costly emergency repairs. Routine servicing allows potential problems with pumps, floats, control panels, pipework and electrical components to be identified before they develop into more serious faults.
A pump provides the necessary pressure to move waste up the pipes in your drainage system to the sewer lines. A pump is necessary when the wastewater needs to flow upwards to the other pipes, which would not be possible otherwise. Maintenance is essential to any part of a drainage system, and a pump is no different; if a pump fails, you may see leaks and an overflow of the wastewater. This would clearly be quite disruptive to a business, which is why we recommend having a maintenance plan in place.
Our Pumping Station Maintenance Plans
We work closely with our suppliers to help design and install pumps that fit your home and business’s needs. This means that once the pump is in place, our team will have an in-depth knowledge of the site and pump, so that we can tailor a maintenance plan to you. It’s very important to carry out regular pump maintenance to keep them running efficiently.
The regular cleaning and checks can take place at a time that suits you, and we recommend this happens every 3-6 months depending on the size of the pump and the frequency of use. (eg. a high demand pump station may need 2-3 interim services a year, whilst a low demand pumping station may only require 1 service a year).
This regular maintenance is extremely beneficial as it can help identify issues early on before they escalate, thus saving you emergency call-outs, fixes and money in the long term.
As part of our maintenance plan, our engineers will check for leaks, check the overall condition of the electrical elements, float switches and guide rails to make sure it is operating as it should be. Not having a maintenance plan means you run the risk of blockages and general wear and tear that weakens the pump.
If you do have an issue with your pump station, one of our engineers can be on site as quickly as possible to carry out the inspection and repairs necessary. Identifying the cause is key to ensuring the problem is resolved. Over time, the natural wear and tear of use can mean that parts of the pump will need replacing. Our engineers can quickly resolve these problems and fit the required parts, ensuring that your pumping station is running in optimal working condition.
We offer repair and maintenance services across Kent, London and the south of England. All of our engineers are highly trained and fully insured.
