Sewage Treatment Plant Servicing in Abinger

If your plant discharges to the ground or a watercourse, the General Binding Rules say it must be maintained by someone competent in line with the manufacturer’s instructions. Regular servicing is the simplest way to show that.

Cut your water use right down and call us. Don’t switch the plant off unless it’s unsafe. Most alarms mean a blower, pump or float has failed, and we can usually find the fault on the first visit.

Often, yes. Our engineers carry the most common parts, such as blowers and pumps, so many repairs are done there and then. For less common parts we’ll order them and come back.

A service checks the mechanical and electrical parts: blower, pumps, floats, alarm and panel. Emptying, or desludging, removes the sludge that builds up. Most plants need both, and we can do them on the same visit.
