Given that pump station cleaning is one of our areas of expertise as a sewage removal company, we would like to shed some light on what sewage pumping stations do and why they are so important.
The simplest way to explain a sewage pump station is that it’s a device that collects waste from your Portsmouth property and pumps it into the mains sewer system. A pump is needed to transfer the waste horizontally or uphill in cases when gravity is working against it or won’t help it reach the sewer system below the ground.
Most pumping stations you come across are comprised of a wet well (or wet tank), float switches and one or two pumps. The whole system is managed by a control panel located near the wet well.
The sewage produced by the building flows into the wet well. As the level of sewage rises, it activates the float switches that will be set at a particular level. Once this level has been reached, the pump will push the liquid out of the wet well and into the mains sewer line.
As a professional sewage removal company, pump station cleaning is one of our specialist services, along with cesspit emptying, gully emptying, grease trap emptying and clearing emergency blocked drains. Just like these other services, pump stations require regular cleaning and maintenance to ensure they continue to function as normal. This helps you avoid unwanted sewage build-ups and all the sanitary problems that could come with them. We use high pressure jetting and other methods to prevent residual sewage build-ups and ensure your pumping station is in top working condition.
If you need pump station cleaning, grease trap emptying, gully emptying, cesspit emptying or solutions for emergency blocked drains in the Portsmouth area, give P and S Tankers Ltd. We’re available for routine servicing work and we also offer 24/7 emergency coverage. With us, your drainage system is always in safe hands.
