Pump stations are essential for moving wastewater or sewage in areas where gravity alone isn’t sufficient. These systems collect waste and pump it to a designated treatment facility or sewer line.
Found in residential, commercial, and industrial settings, they play a critical role in maintaining proper drainage.
A typical pump station will include:
- One or two pumps (depending on system size and function)
- High-level alarms to alert in the event of system failure
- Control panels
- Float switches
In the event of a failure, most pump stations are designed to provide at least 24 hours of storage capacity, giving time to respond and resolve any issues.
Why regular servicing is important
Pump stations must be regularly serviced to:
- Ensure the pumps are free from debris or blockages
- Confirm alarm systems and float switches are working correctly
- Assess the control panel and electrical systems
- Identify any buildup of solids, grease, or foreign objects
Our engineers will fully inspect the system, perform a complete washdown and advise if an empty is required, and issue a service certificate upon completion.
